geo targetting!

This is this interesting email conversation between me and my school friends (!) whom i havent met in ages. we have a yahoogroup for our batch to supposedly keep in touch but we all end up sending silly forwards. but something like this on a sunday morning is definitely worth living a life for! here's my (nbs) 'rocking' conversation

I HAVE ONE VERY IMPORTANT THING TO SAY

i think SOME people from gujarat will remain people from gujarat. fanatics, fundamentalists, frogs in a well, extremists, conservative, non-democratic, followers and defensive. tch...tch...some of my own school friends getting sucked into the game? oh my gawd, i don't believe it, somebody actually brought the whole BJP threat to my one statement. INTOLERANCE aye? but well, against those number of people, i know equal number of people who negate fanaticism and fundamentalism in OUR GUJARAT. so i guess, the situation is balanced!

well, this sounds so much like amir khan defence but well humour isnt really your cup of tea isnt it cp? did u by any chance miss the smiley that was attached with the one liner eh? and yes, school was rocking for most of the time, except for the last couple of years, i have my own reasons, do you mind? and i have equal number of people who DO ADMIT THAT THOSE WEREN'T THE NICEST YEARS IN SCHOOL! so well, thats my answer. but those 'un-rocking' days are to the elements of school, not the school people. i've met some of the best people in my life in school! aah so well, even when i think a particular patch of my school days wasn't so nice, i still remain a STUDENT of the school that taught me so much. AND DEAR MODERATOR, I WOULD VERY MUCH LIKE TO BE A PART OF THIS YAHOOGROUP! ;-)

ds, you are the luckier one i feel. away from the state, at least u've grasped the concept of freedom of speech and democracy in its true sense. HAIL AUSTRALIA! ;-) hee hee, i am jus kidding dude. i love my country as much as anybody else! and i don't say this only cos i perceive some BJP threat..ok u know wot i should really stop joking. afterall, some people do have a problem understanding jokes! and ya, ds you do sound like a good journalist in the making!

ps- how bout visiting the school one of these days? i reeaallly wanna meet some teachers...

Well nbs, quite a nice article, i must say.
But what to do, we r engineers and not journalists like u, so its not pssible for me to present it just like u did.

Pertaining to the humour matter, i would rather say that i forgot to put a smiley next to my threat to u. I think u took it quite seriously, ha ??

Coming to the aamir khan issue, i would say that talkin about democracy and freedom of speech, if u have the right to call a class of people from gujarat as "fanatics, fundamentalists, frogs in a well, extremists, conservative, non-democratic, followers and defensive", then dont u think those people have the right to take their stand on what they feel right. Just because BJP has taken the initiative, it does not mean that there ain't any common men out there in support of BJP's stand. Just picture this : u wrote about our bhs as "UN-ROCKING" and suppose u were an outsider from some other school, just imagine what huge amount of criticism (maybe threats too ... lol ) u would have got from some of us.

There r a lot of people out there in our state for whom the dam is like a dream and a new lifeline. However its really dissapointing that the whole issue is being dragged shamelessly into dirty politics (for god's sake, banning FANAA isn't the solution), but we must also give a thought to the sentiments of people who r hurt by aamir's statements.

Anyways it was nice discussing such topics amid our own school buddies inspite of not being together.All thanks to this group !!

hi everyone,

Wel am the moderator but one thing i`l say is i wil not use any of my power on any of my school buddies..... if any one wants to leave he or she has the right to do but nobody wil be denied a place in this group except he or she is not of bhs..... and hey we are here to have fun and share ideas and be in contact. so i hope this effort does not have any negative effects.... i hope people would understand that and forget everything...

hey guys i guess there is enough debate already on the matter of whether our school is rocking or not... so i thought y not create a poll and let everyone
have a say... so do vote in. u see ds, democracy and voting
rights.
