Lots of new posts but sadly not many new ideas. What strikes me as ridiculous is people living in denial about some very simple things. Democracy is here to stay. Period. Nepal is firmly headed down the path of becoming a multi-cultural, mult-ethnic and multi-lingual nation whether you chose to accept it or bury your head in the sand about it. The picture is obviously not all rosy, but niether is it as bleak and gloomy as the doomsayers are potraying. And I am with Bathroom Coffee and some of the other more sensible posters on this one - clearly many people here can't tell the difference between the hard reality of politics and their personal fantasies of hate and blame.
