Very old-speak, Kumar. This is the 21st century, you're talking about stuff that happened during the British empire and the Cold War.

There are still Mexicans who are ticked off about losing Texas, etc., to the US in 1848, before the Civil War, which seems pretty silly to me.

But then, there are still Cajuns who are ticked off at being thrown out of Nova Scotia in 1755, and Native Americans who mourn 1492.

If you want to blame somebody you can always find someone to blame.

Edit: This is amazing. I was jokig about the Cajuns, but there are Acadian activists who are demanding an apology from the Brits.

I need to write the Queen a letter and thank her. I've eaten the cooking in Nova Scotia, and in Louisiana. Louisiana is better. Even French cooking can't compare to Cajun and Creole, in my opinion.

I also like Indian food better than Pakistani. ;^)
