Is Not IT to be Proudy for Indians after Successfull vision of Chandrayan1 ?? :)

Would you not be prouder if you had done it with your own money? Or maybe the UK will not give you £250 Million next year, as you do not seem to need the aid now, since you are rich enough to go to the moon.

Ah no, Dalek, I don't think that is fair. Awfully nice of you chaps to give India aid and India should never begrudge that but part of aid is meant to uplift a country, not just buy practical water purifiers and blankets. Reaching the Moon is hugely inspirational and should help inspire kids to better themselves. It also takes schools, universities, research labs and factories to reach the Moon, stuff the aid money hopefully helped plan and build. All of that employs people and provides infrastructure. Blankets and water purifiers are investments too but we can't expect to give them those and then they somehow make the leap to crash landing TVs on the Moon. (I do object to them crashing stuff into the Moon when they are still getting aid. I'll bet that probe cost a lot of money.)

No matter how advanced we think we are, we still can't write proper English. -Saurabh
If you think that's bad, you should hear many of your compatriots try to speak it. :-D I recently spent a few days with a tech support engineer from one of the companies I purchase equipment from and it was horrendous. I could understand about 20% of what he said, but that was a vast improvement over trying to communicate with him over the telephone. Of course, he's only been here two years; I've known others equally difficult to understand who have lived and worked here 20 years or more. A brilliant young man, by the way, and I look forward to working with him for many years. But it may be less painful if I learn a bit of Indian first. :-D

Why is advancement linked to being able to communicate in English??
It isn't, except by the ignorant. But we all sometimes make unreasonable assumptions based on irrelevant observations; it's part of the common instinct we all have of fearing what is different. Fortunately, first impressions can be overcome if we choose to do so. Congratulations, India!

I'm thinking it was a clever way to test a nuclear warhead delivery system without the media catching on, but the moon was a bit of overkill. :-D

Ouch! I'm having enough trouble with C#, and it doesn't require an accent.
