I remember there was a 'Say "Chhee!" ' campaign in Bombay a couple of years
ago to 'discourage' those who spit in public places.  Newspaper ads for the
campaign were extraordinarily worded. "Let these despicable animals know
that they are despicable animals!"  
Anyone know what happened to the campaign?  Did anyone say Chhee?

Indians cannot be educated enmasse.  We need individual laws.  We don't care
much for social laws unless they are on our side.  The Law should have teeth
in India.  There should be hefty fines for littering, spitting, smoking in
crowded public places.  People who leave red streaks of pan on railway
station pillars and the seats of cinemas should know that they are no better
than the homeless man who defacates on the streets.

Advantage India : The Garbage Advantage

One of our returned to India friend, puts one
advantage of living in India very succinctly   " I can
throw garbage on road here for free, where as in U.S I
would have had to pay  $200 for the luxury. I can also
spit anywhere I please which would have cost me $100
anywhere else." Now that's a straight gain of  $300 
per month accruing from the freedom to throw garbage.
