This morning's Austin American Statesman tells of the latest world record to be captured by an Indian, one that we can be truly proud of. A certain 54 year old Indian, a E Jayaraman, has talked continuously for 165 hours. Large, cheering crowds urged him on in his quest to break this mighty record. The country of the previous record holder? Sri Lanka. Mr Jayaraman discoursed on subjects as varied as politics and economics and also found the energy to relate film stories (all of which began with two brothers who are separated in the circus when they are tots, no doubt). Oh, how good it feels to be Indian today! regards, dilip. -- Dilip D'Souza MCC Software Technology, Austin. dilip@mcc.COM or [seismo, harvard, gatech, pyramid]!ut-sally!im4u!milano!dilip (512) 834-3491
