It was not the case earlier ….

Recently I have been to my native Kumta for my cousins wedding . As usual I was walking on the way to beautiful sea shore which is located at a throw away distance from my cousins home .

While on the way I met Shivu the farmer from my village ...we were talking about Rain atterns ….

My place is located on the foot hills of western ghats on one side and on other side the

Arabean sea . So normally there is no shortage of rain fall in my place .

I asked Shivu regarding rain this time and about his crops status …

He said in recent years there is serious change in the pattern of rain fall …

He said, rain pattern is changing each year and that in “ july and august there used to be lot of rain fall " …but now days it is not the case …


He said …this year there was shortage of rain fall during seeding …

And he also observed that …. Now there is no consistency in rail fall ... few days

There wont be any rain and next few days ....it will be like a cloud burst …

Overall it is now like this : “ Intensity of rain fall increased many folds and duration of rain fall reduced drastically …”


Is that “ perils of prosperity “ ??

Gen Y ...

Recently i had a chance to listen to the conversations between two young college goers while travelling ...


They looked like nerds and were discussing about jobs in IT and discussion moved from various areas say sex to satellites ...

I have reproduced some part of it ...

X : Are you planning to join a services company or a product firm??

Y : I will join the products firm because I love C language ...

X: but product firm is more than C ...

Y: Ya i know ....but I love C and I want to write code for embedded sys..whats your plan??

X: I dont mind joining any firm either products or services ...but I need good money ...

Y : What I heard is services companies are boring !! you may end up with doing the things that u dont like ....

X : I dont think so ...my cousin in (XXXxxXX) and he is travelling a lot ...he is
a .NET specialist ...

Y: But I dont like companies with lot of people .... its like "Gumpalli Govinda ....""

..discussion went on ....
