Kochi will be the best place to be in

The greenest city in India with zero energy capability,
All major businesses - IT, research, Financial - will set up shop there,
The roads would be the best and will not crumble in the first rain
Disneyland will open its first India location in Kochi

And my kids and then grand kids and great grand kids and so on and so forth will not have think about r2a and r2i and r2a, we will all live happily ever after?Amen.

Gas vehicles will be a thing of the past and will be seen primarily in under developed and some developing countries. Current Middle East oil rich countries will go the Greece way unless they invest in other forms/infrastructure:)

Our forum R2iClubForums.com will still run for several decades in future irrespective of tremendous pressure/stress our invaluable founder/outstanding Admin's undergo on a daily basis.

Our Kids/GrandKids will still access this forum for their successful R2I once they land in America for Education/Job and this site will be professionally managed by dedicated returnees!!

Autonomous vehicles will make parking lots, traffic tickets, auto insurance, and bumper to bumper traffic a thing of history. The entire humanity will get back 2 hours of their day, causing massive increase in worldwide efficiency.

Autoriksha wallas in Delhi cause a massive chakka jaam to stop the autonomous vehicles. Google just redirects traffic causing the jam to melt away in record time.

Bay area real estate prices finally crash ;-)
