    Are these the ones that had a certain smell to them? I can't really describe it, but I know I liked it. Everytime I got a hand out like this, I would smell it. Pretty weird, I guess.

    My wife moved out of the classroom last year, but up until then she was still using an overhead. We had put a whiteboard in her class as well, but what she really wanted was a SmartBoard. Not many of those have found their way into public school classrooms down here.

    you havent figure that out?

    company x knows you are more comfortable hearing anything but sameer or anushka even though its obvious there are not a million johns and suzys in new delhi. although you just happen to speak to one every time you get transferred there.

    Right. Their name is really Gupta or Gayathri, but they are told to say John or Mary.

    I never have had a problem with foreign support people if they can answer my question and most can. "Craig" from Bangladesh was the best tech support guy I've ever gotten.
