	As many have pointed out I did not neccessarily choose
	the most eloquent wording for the original posting.  I
	apologize to anyone who may have been offended.  The
	purpose of the original posting was just to generate
	discussion, not to offend any one.

	I would also like to define the different paths for
	love marriages so that future debate/discussion will
	not confine the scope of love marriages.

		1) Marriage to an Indian who has also come abroad
		   to study
		2) Marriage to an Indian American [Indo-American]
		   (one who was brought up here)
		3) Marriage to an American (exclusive of #2 above)
		4) Returning to India and having a love marriage

	Previous discussions have made references to Type 3 (from
	above) love marriages and a bit on Type 1.  I think the
	most important of these is Type 4.
