nice piece karmapa... highfly- it wasn't directed at you...:) i was being critical of an earlier poster that did not understand the needs of a refugee. : an individual seeking refuge or asylum; especially : an individual who has left his or her native country and is unwilling or unable to return to it because of persecution or fear of persecution (as because of race, religion, membership in a particular social group, or political opinion) from what i've learnt, the greatest aspiration of a refugee is refuge. and if u explicity deny that to them at the outset but promise better sewarage and a tent with great views of the sunset...i think your are merely pulling the wool over their eyes. it's like pissing down their back and telling them it's raining...wOOt prolonging the misery ke. they didn't leave bhutan cause the food was too spicy.. if u know what i mean...:) but if telling someone in need, to fork off is real and practical....then i'd rather detach myself from mankind. lastly manish-kalebhut uses the word prone..ie..inclined, apt or tending to. my fingers hurt.
