Traffic ! Traffic !

Swish Swish Swash - And another Bike moves past the car I am Driving . If it were any closer it would just have touched the car a bit . This is something that you would also have experienced many times and not only bikes but every kind of vehicle on Indian Roads ( South East Asian countries are not far behind but that I have not researched) . Some of my friends argue that I am new to car driving and that they don't find it maddening . But ponder for a moment . Everyone is a newcomer one or the other time. Apart from that think how dangerous it is when someone jumps a red light or drives at frightening speed. Just 1 mistake by someone and life is in peril. I feel it is time that we get into right driving manners and think about safe driving on Roads . 17 Sep 2007: After 8 odd months,things do not appear to improve much ;except for the fact that my Driving has improved considerably. "Road Safety" - well that is another thing altogether .

India's exciting one wicket win over Australia in Mohali test

In an exciting finish in the first test match at Mohali, India beat Australia by 1 wicket. India had to make 216 to win, and at 1 stage India were 124 for 8. Then V.V.S.Laxman and Ishant Sharma had a superb partnership of 81 runs and took India to victory. Laxman remained unbeated on 73, and Ishant made 31. The place where I am currently staying does not subscribes to the sports channel showing this match, but I would surely love to watchthe highlights of this match.

What is this street's name ?

However, I have not found a satisfactory answer.

Evolution and Creationism - My Viewpoint

Whenever someone mentions something related to Evolution ; or whether God created all Animals , Humans ;or whether it is all a play of evolutionary Process; I become very much engrossed. It is a topic in which I have a unique interest . At a personal level,I favour the Theory of Evolution . True , the theory that God created everything does has its valid points . It also has many people supporting it . Points that make the God's creation Theory (as such this is not the name of the Theory , but I call it like this ) : 1)Evolutionists say that Man evolved from Apes who in turm evolved from some Amphibian creatures ,who in tuirn were evolving from Reptiles or Fish and so on . yet ; who created the most basic Life Form ? It must have been God . 2)Who decided when Big Bang has to happen or why Earth only had to be habitable long enough ? True , Mars also has some signs of Life Supporting conditions , but no Life has been detected as such . 3)Why Man only...
