Looking for job in Madras....

My "best" guess is that the OP is a joker. Unless he posts otherwise, its best to ignore his ramblings.

What should my contract rate be?

DBN,

Where have you been man? Are we going to see you on the forum more regularly? Good luck with the move.

On a side note, CA may have different ordinances, so may be a good time to revive the bidet project. :emdgust:

Godse, Savarkar and Gandhi

Desi, Thank you for your latest and elaborate response. I agree I should have been more specific about Godse in my response. I waxed philoshophically in that response and did not tackle that issue. So let me put this to rest. What Godse did was wrong, and when I made those statements, I did not say ...

Career advise - regarding roles

Career progression is a funny thing. Some have to return and start afresh. Others get stuck in the GC process and lose valuable and productive years. Don't lose heart. Come up with a career plan. Define goals and objectives. Plan by developing short term and long term career goals. Find a mentor ...

MT: Archaeolgy, Anthropology, Paleontology

Desi, Not to nitpick, but Buddhist caves cannot be representative of how people lived a couple of thousand years ago, since the Buddhist way of life required them to renounce "normal" life and live as a monk.

MT: Archaeolgy, Anthropology, Paleontology

It is becoming more and more evident through recent findings that modern humans evolved earlier than thought before. I read on yahoo that modern human remains from 1.3 million years ago were found recently in Spain. Also, there are indications that humans evolved into societies (organized ...
