The election results are out in TN and there has been a smooth ttransition of power. The people have voted thrown out the incumbent for the 4th suceesive time. On that count they have become cleverer than the politicians who pretend and say they have made their avatars only to serve the masses. With each govt they get the best of freebies. May or may not be wrong. Don't know.
Recently came across the artivle. Hope some one finds it useful.

I am a Gents and not a Ladies.
TK and DT,
Let me give an example. A friend of mine (who died last year at an young age of 48) by name Sivarama Dandamudi was a Professor of Computer Science at Carleton University in Ottawa. The guy has written 7 books. Guess what! He never changed his name to suit the locals. So why this Shaun, Paddy, crap that too in India?
Oh! I forgot. He works for an American firm.
