   I speak 3 languages (English, Hindi, Tamil) and know what you mean. May I ask how you picked up Lao, and how similar/dissimilar it is to say Hindi or Bengali?

   It appears that there is an open issue[1] in the Wikipedia python library where it does not list the different sections in a wikipedia page. So right now, this would only generate questions from the "Summary" section of any wikipe

    Of course. Thing is - I think I understand the goals of the publication(Nautilus) and want them to be better - it would benefit everyone.

    I wish there was more focus on non-Western philosophy in such articles. Often there are one or two Greek philosophers, one or two Muslim philosophers and a brief mention of something something Buddhist philosophy. What about Hindu philosoph

    I feel that the article is missing something that is very important - the violence of the Spaniards. Did not the Spaniards stamp and erase the culture & religion of the Mexica? If the Mexica culture had been allowed to exist could we no

    > The idea is that God -- being good -- would never have intended nature to be full of violence and deception That is interesting, I was not aware of it. It is kind of the opposite in Hindu philosophy. There is this idea of 'matsya

    I have read similar articles a few years back. The "missed call culture" as people put it has been there for quite sometime, since the mobile revolution in India. However I would say one reason for this might be that voice mail is hardly us
