It amazes (and worries) me how much rain-dependent Indian agriculture is. Today, while talking to a vegetable-vendor, I was surprised when he said that the prices would spiral up again,although it had rained(and still raining) pretty well this year. When I asked why, he replied that this year, the rains were too heavy. Really, how many more years...

Really, how many more years should we keep our fingers crossed, for the 'perfect-monsoon'??
- Abhishek
We had a similar situation several years ago here in California. There was just too much rain and it killed produce. We've also seen price increases due to frosts, fires, winds and drought. Short of manufacturing synthetic food, what do you propose?
- Anika
LOL~Sean. @Anika Research on raising food-crops in controlled(and closed) evironment could be an answer, but that would be thinking of far-off things, considering the archaic tools of farming used here, and ignorance of authorities......

Abhid, you mean something like large scale hydroponics?
- Anika
@Anika Hydroponics?
- Abhishek
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki... It uses less water. There are several shops near me who sell gear and it's amazing to see that plants I water deeply once a week and maybe water 2 or 3 other times, can still generate the needed food and use less water.
- Anika
@Anika Just googled it, yes, something on the lines of Hydroponics, but again, thats a distant dream(as far implementation goes.), we must get basics right first.

Andrei Tarkovsky's Stalker (1980) came second, behind Blade Runner, in a recent BFI poll of its members' top movies. In outline, it's one of the simplest films ever made: a guide, or Stalker, takes two people, Writer and Professor, into a forbidden area called the Zone, at the heart of which is the Room, where your deepest wish will come true. It is this simplicity that gives the film its fathomless resonance. If Tarkovsky's previous film, Solaris, seemed like a Soviet 2001, was Stalker Tarkovsky's take on The Wizard of Oz?...I've seen Stalker more times than any film except The Great Escape. I've seen it when the projectionist got the reels in the wrong order (I was the only person who noticed), I've seen it on my own in Paris and dubbed into Italian in Rome, I've seen it on acid (remember that sequence when the solid ground begins to ripple?) and I've seen it on telly - and it's never quite as I remember. Like the Zone, it's always changing. Like the Stalker, I feel quite at home in...

I wish I had something witty or random to say, but I don't. That is a really nice play on light and color, and probably more subtle details that a non-picture-taking person like me can't recognize.

Super Indian - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki...
Anand liked this
"Super Indian is actually Aman, born to the fictional terrorist chief Ahankari, as a clone. Ahankari considered cloning himself after suffering a near fatal encounter with William Boother, an infiltrator. He selected Dr. Heathrow to create a clone of himself in every aspect. The clone grew to adulthood very rapidly due to accelerated cloned genes. A host of super villains was selected to impart training and equipment to the clone in order to make him a perfect successor to the terrorist leader. At this point, Ahankari's father, fearing that the clone would also turn out evil like his son, arranged for the Indian mystic "Rudraksh Baba" to take charge of his grandson."
