Rohit
apropos yur survey, i think it goes to prove that most people you interviewd 
believe we are our own enemy. While Pakistan and CHina do pose significant 
threats as long as our people are kept in teh dark and uneducated they will 
be the politicians weapons in teh form a double edged sword, one to get 
their votes and to incite them in teh face of percieved threats.

Until we "educate" them they will pose our biggest threat/hindrance to 
progress.

On cars

Mav isnt the Esteem a front wheel drive? I thought the rear wheel drive long 
disappeared from the market. Teh last of teh rear wheel drive cars made in 
Japan was in teh late 70's.

You also took me back many a year when at an automobile exhibition i saw a 
VW beetle the old one and in my eyes teh true beauty.
They had changed out teh regular 1300 cc engine for a Porsche 2000 cc 
engine. I would have liked to "drag" with somebody at a traffic light just 
to see his eyes pop out when he would get left behind by a "BUG"

On teh subject of VW conversions I wonder how many people remember teh VW 
Karmann Ghia. I believe teh old Binaca car shaped like a tube of tootpaste 
was a modified Karmann Ghia

I had teh opportunity to see a Karmann Ghia recently, It was restored by its 
current owner not to original specs though because the car could not be 
airconditioned as it were. He changed out the engine for a 2 liter DIesel 
water pump from Indonesia. added an air connit and drives teh thing around 
Doha with its characteristic Karmann Ghia signature on teh boot of teh car.
