              Sure, but you need special keyboards for the penguins. It's hard to type with flippers.

                      For me at least, it isn't that threads deal with India, but that many posters have absolutely nothing to say about the articles they link to. It's a single link, maybe a quote from the article, and not a peep of opinion or thought or question regarding it. Surely, if something was interesting enough for you to say, "Hey, I need to share that with a few million others.", then you have some opinion on the matter. Share that too.

                          Yup. It doesn't matter what the topic or where you come from, I think links should be accompanied with some brief thought as to why I should even bother clicking it.
