Really Mr. Hulaki, such shrivaled thoughts by one so educated and well-travelled as yourself. Had you stopped to think for one moment, you would have in your sweeping generalizations on Nepalis abroad, found that citing/believing one source (an aquaintance, friend, if you will) to paint the diaspora with one broad brush reduces your credibility regarding your critical thinking abilities. I would allow you some rope if you had cited a sociological, statistical data supporting your generalizations. * First, had you lived in USA, you would have a picture of what Nepalis really do out here in the US. Since you blatantly confess, you have not even attempted to visit USA let alone lived here, and ofcourse since you choose to believe your limited sources, I would think your gullibilty far outstretches your imaginations. I am sure, your "friend" is having a field day at your expense. An astro-whatever as you claim to be believing a sensationalist TV interview, my, I dread to imagine what you must be teaching those poor children with your telescope. * Amazing isn't it that you are unaware there is dignity in labour here. The smart ones, wash dishes, work in gas stations, cook... earn money, go to college and land a big job/earn a living. And since you seem to be ignorant of this fact, American teens do the same, finish their college to pursue a career in whatever they desire to. And then there are others who don't do any of the above menial labor, get a scholarship and finish their degrees. I wonder why you have not heard of Nepali journalists, scientists, teachers, business-men, job holders who live and thrive in US. Is your social circle so limited and your access to credible information so poor that you have to rely on hearsay? Ah, my sympathies sir, you are surely killing your brain cells. Can such one dimensional thinking accomodate the space and the stars, I wonder! Or is astro knowledge is as selected and one dimensional? * Perhaps, you can transfer your astro knowledge here: Just because your limited telescope does not view IT, IT does not exist. If it is applicable in space information, can it be applicable in your ignorance of the US? OR, Do you assume, sir that just because you don't see the Orion Nebula, through your telescope, it does not exist! Come now, sir, you go into painstaking lengths about your scientic knowledge/interest/background and then proceed to display utter naivete! Do I detect a black hole in your critical thinking abilities or is it just plain wishful thinking on your part?
