Atrial fibrillation can be taken care of. The point is that it is manageable.

Most modern Indians don't stick to their caste jobs any more. There is more inter-caste marriage, more fluidity, more freedom than ever before.

Where there is life. Some of it, possibly, intelligent. ~Stephen Hawking

In very big companies, you find less entrepreneurialism than you really want to see. Success is defined as "don't make a mistake." And you get to be the C.E.O. by outlasting everybody else, then you're there for five or six years, and you want to get your bonus on the way out. ~Bernard L. Schwartz
