Well if everything goes well and if I won't be attending any more meetings today, this should be my first post here. And ( Although I know most of you aren't interested , if any at all ) like most other things zooming in and out of my subliminal transmission waves, this thought again was totally random. The background was probably already made by the events of the previous few days/months/years and decades. The whole idea was the "spooky" interaction between seemingly disconnected objects/events. Be it the oil prices, food shortage or the blasts in Bangalore and Ahmadabad. The list can be endless. The phenomenon, though termed as "spooky" by some of the bests of all time, is still intriguing and relevant enough ( Nothing to do with quantum teleportation, not yet at least :P ).

So, where does it fit in in the 'general scheme of things'? Well... everywhere to be true. This phrase makes me think about the ever so illusive connection between the seemingly disconnected. ( Feeling sleepy ?? Action at a distance again at work!! )

"After God", one of the most authoritative description of human nature and behavior is summed up by one of our contemporaries. ( No, he isn't George Bush, although full marks for trying!! ) He is woody allen, better known as Woody Allen. So whats up with all this killing going on all around the world? Ah!! I know I am late to the party, most of us have already awakened to the reality ( and contributed their precious time/bandwidth/storage space on the topic already. How insecure we are?? What should everyone do? Whats wrong with the system? Why Bangalore ? ( Given that Ahmadabad can be 'explained' so easily and so 'uncommonly'. ). When Delhi/Mumbai? .....So on and so forth. So... Why so much killing? Well... when was it any lesser in the history?? What should we do? Ask the same question two months from now, you will have easier options.

" Why does man kill? He kills for food. And not only food: frequently there must be a beverage."

Think about it??

I should be back....

And I am .. Surely gladder than 'you all' are. So where does Woody Allen fit in all this at all? For one, he is quite efficiently built man. So, the answer is simple, men kill for no reason at all(Action at a distance again?? )and trying to find the answer of this perpetually puzzling problem is an effort in wrong direction. Leave a group of humans alone on an inhabitable planet and they would create another mirror image of earth with similar behavioral patterns, immediate surrounding does matter but the human nature and the survival instinct appeal to something rooted deep within the conscience. Deeper then all the moral/aesthetic/civil/religious/historical/social/other instincts combined. Pieces must have started falling in place now I am sure. ( If 'you' haven't fallen asleep yet ) . I generally take longer time to explain the relevance and the pretext of things.

So the question is why do men kill? the relevance.. ah not needed, Woody Allen gives us the simplest explanation (as always). And Action at a distance ???

(Junk) Food for thought

"The history of the world is like: He kills me, I kill him, only with different cosmetics and different castings. So in 2001, some fanatics killed some Americans, and now some Americans are killing some Iraqis. And in my childhood, some Nazis killed Jews. And now, some Jewish people and some Palestinians are killing each other. Political questions, if you go back thousands of years, are ephemeral, not important. History is the same thing over and over again."

Should be back again...
