What I read few years back.
Mahamatma Gandhiji went to paradise. God asked. What is the spelling of WE ?.
Gandhiji told W..E. God said 'correct. You are allowed inside this paradise.'
Next Nehruji entered paradise. God again asked. What is the spelling of YOU ?
Nehru told Y O U. God said 'correct. You are also allowed inside this paradise.'
Next X (you can imagine any politician) entered paradise. God asked. What is the
spelling of CZECHOSLOVAKIA ? X .....?
The Management decides not to promote, they have ways.

MY EXPERIMENTS WITH HOME BUSINESS-Part -3
My laziness and internet dial-up connection made me to leave survey jobs.
I decided to do something which my intervention should not be required.
I searched in Google to find "one website" which suited my requirement.
That was "dollarrandomizer.com".
In that programme, we have to deposit some dollars (I think $ 20). It promised me that it would give one website in my name.
There were 2 ways of earning from that website.
1) Whenever any person landed in dollarrandomizer.com, it would display any one of the members page. If the visitor joined in that programme by paying $20, $8 would go to the member displayed and balance would go to dollarrandomizer.com. It promised that it would display till member gets $ 4850.
2) I have to promote the website allotted to me and anybody joins the program through my website, I would get $ 8 and the rest would go to dollar...com.
I believed that.
I joined by paying $ 20 and I was given user id and password to log on along with a website.
This happened in 2004.
At that time, I did not know how to spread the message about my website to the world (website allotted to me). I thought if anybody visited the dollar...com website, my name might be displayed and anybody joins, I would get some dollars.
My first priority was to collect the $ 20 I paid.
In that dollar..com, they had given some ebooks regarding home business, which I downloaded fully.
Every day, I used to see my email, whether any email from paypal and found nothing.
When days were rolled over, I lost hope.
I stopped visiting that dollar..com also.
In 2008, I wanted to see whether they had added any new ebooks.
Surprised to note that website dollarrandomizer.com is found missing.
The only benefit I got was few ebooks.

My Experiences with Internet Service Providers (ISP) - BSNL
After the expiry of HATHWAY BBC, I decided to go for BSNL. I visited their office in Greams Road, Chennai and got an application.
In that application, they have provided to book BBC on-line. I came to my office and
booked through on-line. It asked some basic details such as name, address, plan option etc.
After filling up all the information, it gave me one reference number which I failed to note thinking that this number can be printed again once I give my basic details.
That proved wrong. When I visited that website to take printout of that number, I could not find any provision for the same.
I did not get any response from BSNL even after 15 days.
I once again visited their office and met the officer and gave my details.
She promptly asked for the reference number given at the time of booking on-line.
I gave my personal details used for registration. With that details, she could not locate my details and asked me to give fresh application.
I gave fresh application and after 20 days, I got the connection.
BSNL, the government body is that much fast.

Election 2009 in my place
Fifth and final phase of 15th Lok Sabha Election 2009 is coming to an end today.
Many parties came to my house and gave a slip which contains my name, my father's name, my voter id number, slno. in the register, place of voting etc.
I took one slip and went to vote (to fulfill my duty, as a citizen of India)around
8.30 am.
In the slip, there was a mention that which room I should contact for voting.
I went to that room, and stood in a queue for 10 minutes.
Election officers verified my details with the voter id I have and asked me to vote in an electronic machine.
In that machine, names, symbol of all candidates contesting in that constituency is available.A button is available for each candidate. To vote for that candidate, we have press the button available for him.
AFter pressing the button, a beep sound is heard and that is the indication that voting is completed.
My queries regarding Election:
1) Why on-line voting is not available ?
2) Why there is no provision in the voting machine for Section 49(0). (Separate post follows for this section)
3) Why it is not made compulsory that each and every Indian should vote.
4) Why it is not made compulsory that each political party should contest alone and face the election. and should be allowed to form group after winning).
5) Only 45-50% of people vote and party who gets majority (272 MPs) (approximately 30-40% voted) will form Government (i.e. party rejected by 60-70% of people). Is it not a strange ?

My Experiences with Internet Service Providers (ISP) - HATHWAY
Since everybody has switched over to Broad Band Connection, I have decided to have one BBC (Broad Band Connection).
My next question is to whom I should contact. In Chennai, we have ISPs like BSNL, HATHWAY,
AIRTEL , RELIANCE, TATA INDICOM etc.
Initially, I wanted to have minimum budgeted BBC. I have choosen HATHWAY since it provided 1 GB data transfer per month and rent is Rs.250 per month which sounded very cheap for me and got the connection. Data connectivity is 1 Mbps. (one mega bit per second).
There is a difference between 1MBps and 1Mbps. (1 MBps is one Mega Byte per second).
I was asked to pay 4 months rent in advance with service tax. I was given 4GB download limit for 4 months.
Next day after making cheque payment, I got the BBC. The speed was very much terrific.
I have uploaded my blog, my website etc and I was very much impressed with the connectivity and speed.
Within a month, this connectivity got disconnected and when I contacted the ISP, they told me that entire 4 GB was already exhausted.
I could not believe this. At my office, I checked the usage of BBC under my user ID, I found that daily several hundreds of KB was downloaded.
Then I enquired my son who accepted that he downloaded many MP3 songs, movies and games daily.
ISP succeeded in getting 4 months rent for 4 GB in one month. They know about the customers.
That is why they charge several months rent in advance knowing that entire download limit will be exhausted in short span of time.
I have to run my blog and website. I have tasted the speed of BBC. Eventhough I have dail up connection, I did not want to use it.
Again I have contacted the ISP to renew the account. Meantime, somebody from the said company contacted me and promised to do the renewal. He came and gave me a proposal and asked me to fill up the same.
I told him that my information is already available with the company and asked him what is the necessity to fill up it again ?
He honestly accepted that he would commission if this renewal is treated as fresh.
I did not say anything and asked to fill up the form on my behalf and I only signed. Renewal or fresh, it is not going to make any difference as far as I am concerned.
Next day, he came along with the Engineer and disconnected the old modem and put the new one and went away.
This time, he gave different user id for me.
This new BBC was working fine for me for quite some time. I instructed my son not to download MP3 songs or movies or games and threatned him that if BBC connection goes, it would not be renewed. My son agreed for that.
After two months, I got problem in connectivity. I could not depend on this BBC. I did not know when it would disconnect due to poor transmission. I had to contact the customer care for restoration several times.
I got irritated. I decided not to renew with this ISP on expiry of BBC. After 3 and 1/2 months
BBC dead permanently. When contacted the customer care, I was shocked to hear the my 4 GB was already exhausted.
On enquiring my son, he promised that he did not download anything. (Ofcourse, he had got his examinations during these 3 months).
I again checkedup in my office. This time , I was the culprit. I have uploaded many graphics in my website and blogs and each time, when tested and uploaded, these KBs were added.
They have not sent any communication to my email id that the limit is exhausted.
I have sent email to them and asked for explanation why I was not informed.
They did not responded to my email. I have sent another reminder and for which they have responded by asking my mobile number to contact me.
I replied to that email. Till date, no one has contacted me.
Then I have contacted their customer care and asked the same question. He told me that this
usage information was sent to my hathway email id only and not to my regular email id.
I told him that many customers would see their regular email id only and not the new email id given by hathway. He accepted it and he told me that he would inform his retention team to contact me for renewal.
I have sent another email asking them why nobody contacted me and asked them to take the modem as I am no longer interested to renew (by the time, the 4 months period was over). BBC.
Nobody came to take the modem. It is lying with me only.
I have decided to change ISP and changed ISP BSNL.

Is it True ?
I have received an email as follows:“Hello there. I just wanted 2 let you know that please stay away from the beaches all around in the month of July. There is a prediction that there will be another tsunami hitting on July 22nd. It is also when there will be solar eclipse. Predicted that it is going 2 be really bad and countries like Malaysia (Saba & Sarawak), Singapore, Maldives, Australia, Mauritius, Sri Lanka, India, Indonesia, Philippines are going 2 be badly hit. Please try and stay away from the beaches in July. Better 2 be safe than sorry. Please pass the word around. Please also pray for all beings.”
I do not know who predicted this. Since this email speaks about the spread of this message, I did it.
Hope nothing like tsunami is going to happen in July.
