Freedom from Chain Mails

C’mon, be a Sport!

When Sachin Tendulkar travelled to Pakistan to face one of the finest bowling attacks ever assembled in cricket, Michael Schumacher was yet to race a F1 car, Lance Armstrong had never been to the Tour de France, Pete Sampras had never won a Grand Slam, Roger Federer was a name unheard of; Lionel Messi was in his nappies, Usain Bolt was an unknown kid in the Jamaican backwaters.

 

Holy Smart People, Batman!

Algebra, Trigonometry and Calculus, the Decimal System, Zero originated in India; Bhaskaracharya rightly calculated the time taken by the earth to orbit the Sun hundreds of years before the astronomer Smart,  Ayurveda is the earliest school of medicine known to mankind originated here, Sanskrit is considered the mother of all higher languages and is most suitable language for software programming!

 

36% of NASA scientists are INDIANs.
34% of Microsoft employees are INDIANs.
28% of IBM employees are INDIANs.
17% of INTEL scientists are INDIANs.
13% of XEROX employees are INDIANs.

 

Ooo, bendy!

Yoga originated in India over 5000 years ago..

 

Technically, we rule!

Sun Micro systems co founded by Vinod Khosla, the Pentium chip created by Vinod Dham, Sabeer Bhatia and Hotmail are still synonymous, the GM of Hewlett Packard is Rajiv Gupta and  Arun Netravalli is the president of AT&T Bell Labs.

 

Oh and, Who is the third richest man on the world? Azim Premji (The Sultan of Brunei slipped to 6th position. Tsk Tsk.)

 

Proud to be an Indian?
