Nobody (with the exception late singer Arun Thapa's friends) takes the results of these BBC Internet polls seriously. But, hey, that doesn't mean that we should noit have some harmless, patriotic and easy fun, when times are tough in Nepal and the only headlines Nepal gets are for mass murders, strikes and quarrelling politicians.
