Thanks Heaven for sharing.
I belive that "Brown" is actually meant to be substitued by "Desi". Many points like this have already been discussed. I personally had picked out one such old thread 2 years back from CD archives and reintroduced it to the forum.
Anyways, Since I am a Desi who was also abroad when i was very young and also since i spent the prime of my youth in Desiland, I can recall how valid each and every point is. I actually relate my self to each and evry point shared.
Thanks once again.
