    Actually, Indian fellows outnumber us in pretty much everything: It is just that there are so many of them !

          OK, that's a provocative title, but I couldn't really think of what else to call this post. I've just reread an old article and there are comments from a number of our Indian CPers on it. Curiosity got the better of me and I started to read their bios. The thing that impressed me is how many MVPs we have amongst our Indian community, and how proportionately they outnumber the none-Indian members of the site who are currently none-Code Project MVPs. Given the fact that the Indian development community have been given a hard time here, I'd like to take this opportunity to say "Blimey, you're doing a great job" to them and remind people that there while, in common with other groups, there are a number of poor devs there, there are also a number of excellent one's.

          Now that's funny, because people here in Brazil use to say I look like an Indian. :)

            Yes, we are leading 2-0, but it won't take long...

                No, they say I'm Indian from India. Used to be "Apu" in the past, but more recently "Raj" :)

                  If it is any consolation to you, I have been mistaken for a Hispanic-American and have been spoken to in Spanish!
