Hi Mohan, I see you have been very successful in playing the bubble on the upside. Congratulations on that front. However, if you realize that this is a bubble and don't get too greedy, who knows, you may even rival the Wipro CEO - the richest Indian now. -g- I am in the camp who believes strongly that this bubble was fed by irresponsible actions of Alan Greenspan, Bob Rubin and Co, I thought I will share this post with you guys on this thread. Message 12141986 For those of you think it is the duty of the Feds to bail out the irresponsible investors, think again. Do you know: 1. How much of second mortgage money is in the stock market? 2. How much of credit card borrowed money is in the market? 3. Do you know how much money the Feds printed in the last 2 months? ... I will add more later.

Mohan...talk about initiative.....Tim Company Tries to Patent Curry LONDON (Reuters) - A Japanese company has stunned devotees of Indian food by applying for a patent on curry, according to a British Sunday newspaper. The House Foods Corporation is trying to take out a patent on the dish cooked every day by hundreds of millions of people on the Indian subcontinent and which has become a favorite in restaurants throughout Britain, India's former colonial ruler. ``Not content with taking over world markets for cars and camcorders, entrepreneurs in the Land of the Rising Sun have developed a taste for tikka masala,' The Independent on Sunday reported. In application no 06090838 to the Japanese Patent Office, House Foods lists two Japanese, Hirayama Makoto and Ohashi Sachiyo, as ``inventors' of curry, and gives a basic recipe for a curry that would not impress connoisseurs, it said. The newspaper said that under World Trade Organization rules the men would, if their application succeeded, be able to claim royalties on all curry and curry products entering Japan. The Indian government views the application as ``a matter of concern', the Independent said.
