Gurmeet is the son of one of the farmers I worked with in Punjab. Gurmeet's father was very successful (not because I worked with him, it's more that I worked with him because he was successful) and in the 1990s I was able to help him and his wife get a visa to come to the U.S. as tourists, which they did. They've been trying to get me to pay a return visit. I should do it. I need to make a plan. Gurmeet - allow me to introduce you to other readers.

We have literally played havoc by chasing the green revolution that the ground water table has gone down and some day... who knows it may turn into a desert again. The old fort is crumbling and nobody takes care about it. There are peace talks going on between India and Pakistan. I think its time you took a journey once again and refreshed your memories. I am sure now nobody is going to call you jasoose,jasoose...
