I too got confused assuming the list to represent all examples of poor visualisation. Reading the text didn't help much. Because the list is presented top-down in sequence, a reader immediately assumes a homogeneous list of items. A si

It's very possible. In Urdu, a a language with strong roots in Farsi and Arabic, and spoken in Pakistan, India ... Iran?, the word tomorrow and yesterday are both "kal". But the (auxiliary) verb associated with "kal"

The epicenter of the modern human waste problem is India. Has this project been tried in India? I know Gates is behind this project. If it has, I wonder what were the results, hurdles and practicalities.
