My good buddy/colleague who is corrently in India wrote to a few of us...
In a way I'm very touched by the range of experience he's having... in a way I just love his stories and how he relates to the world...

Hey you guys,
MUMBAY one the biggest city in the world. Man how would of guest. There is not one building standing. I never saw so many people sleeping in the street. It makes me sick. I can't even see the differance between homeless people and the others. Everyone is so durty. It's not even funny.
The food is spicy as hell is hot. I can't take it anymore. I have hart burn so intense that I wounder if my stomich is pearced and I can ear the sound fire estinguishing when my shit hits the water in the toilet bol. Hey, this is painfuI.
Amjad arranged for me a drive to transport me from the hotel to the site and back. He drives one of those 3 wheelers. His pretty cool. except for the fact that he brings me flowers in the morning and that he tries to send me prostitutes almost every night.
Today I saw my first cow. What a sacred animal. It was so beautiful. It's head in a pile of garbage trying to find some food to eat. Now it's clear to me why people here don't eat cows.
I still have 2 weeks to endure this pain and after I hope that my plane wont be late.
I love you guys...
