Glasgow attack: suspect's 'global warming' project

A man arrested in connection with attempted bomb attacks in Britain in which he suffered serious burns told his Indian family that he was working on a "large-scale confidential project," a press report said today.
The Times of India said Indian national Kafeel Ahmed, an aeronautical engineer with a doctorate from Britain, was one of the men detained after driving a blazing car into Glasgow airport. He is currently being treated for serious burns.
"I am involved in a large-scale confidential project. It is about global warming. I cannot reveal the details," he told his family in Bangalore, southern India, before leaving for Britain in May, the paper reported.[The Sydney Morning Herald]

Glad that I am uneducated.....

I will confess that I am proud of my little quiz, I think it is bit clever.

Then yesterday I was told that my answer was wrong because,

"XXX: it would have made sense if deep blue was self build but it is run and designed by human hands
me: ???
XXX: krishna taking on t gods was not guided by gods".

Setting aside the question whether free will exists and what are the philosophical implications of absence of free will, here is the thing, analogies are pretty elastic but there is something called overstretching your case, when it simply snaps.

So since the theme was about creation overcoming creator, free will is as relevant to the fact that Deep blue is made of VLIC and King was made of protein.

Here is the moral of the story,

Majority of people treat education same way as a monkey treats a hammer.

Let this be known Gaurav's law on education.

Questions , Questions

You know, I would really like to know whether newspapers, agencies, channels world over have a single vendor for spell checkers. It is because they behave in a eerily similar way.

For instance,

"A man of Pakistani origin arrested for terror attack", becomes, "A man of South Asian origin arrested for terror attack"

BUT

"A man of Indian origin arrested for terror attack", remains ,"A man of Indian origin arrested for terror attack".

Yeh kya ho raha hai !!

Question

Is this satire, or reality ?

PS. Question was rhetorical, it is reality.

Moment of truth

When I was young and innocent, I had this surreal feeling as if I am in dream you know sort of like I am in Matrix.

Now having grown older, I have come to realize the I am in something, but it is definitely not Matrix.

Consider,

"Prince in the well"

And,

"Bart in the well"


So, this is The Simpsons after all !

Aphorism:Slopes

In logic slippery slope may be fallacy, in real life though, it is inevitability.
