Don.Corleone, Forget 'em bombaclaat, who don't understand what it is to have passion for education, a passion for devoting your time and past of your life learning what other people learnt and thought it is worth passing on to other people. Sure, it doesnt necessarily need to be academics. But hey! academics is the best place to be. You can learn things with all the mistakes that you want to commit and still be okay, if you fail and slip. You get up and move on again with the hope to not slip again. LIfe it aint that simple. At times, you mess up one, you mess up bigtime. There are strong possibilites that you might neer get back on track. Anyways, its probably useless to explain this to dumbass-es. Aniways, Don. Corleone: I think you brought a great point with forming some kind of group that may be in future we can get together and contribute something significant with joint effort back in Nepal. And until we can do that, we should still share our knowledge and interest to see if we can correlate what we do to further advance in our chances of putting together our learnings towards better Nepal. For me, I am 23 years old, doing my PhD in CS at MIT. My concentration is Game Theory and Network Optimization. Please email me Don if you want. May be we can seriously get something together for upcoming ANA event at New York. best, B.
