For All the Hate In India

The Subcontinent has a lot of problems. Rebel movements. Poverty, famine and disease. And extremely fractious relations with its neighbor to the northwest, Pakistan. Despite all of the tension and mistrust if you ask an Indian or Pakistani, however, they'll agree privately on three things:

1. Seen from a distance, one billion little brown men look pretty much the same.
2. Anyone who tells you their mouth doesn't water at a beef'n'pork barbeque is lying.
3. Gurkhas - they so crazy!

At least there's something they can agree on.
