   Wow -- that's surprising! Not that it was boring, but that   
   the India-respondents were so negative. Was it just India and   
   the US, or are other countries represented? How old is this   
   book? I think I'll go find it and browse it in the bookstore (on   
   your dis-recommendation! Thanks).
