Friends Forever

Dejection fills the ranks...
BTP projects have to follow Murphy's law to the letter....
My happiness of 'gud work' wrt BTP was short lived... Had a lot of discoloration on the pellets, plus apparently 'sintering changes the XRD of a specimen' >:P>:P
Neways... there is always a nxt time...

Celebrated Mandys bday today

Gifted him a 'friends forever' pic (left exhibit)
The roly-poly chap in the lower-left of the pic is Sumedh, Mandar and bond in the lower-middle pic, and me and Mandar in the central pic (taken in 2nd year)

Treted us to pizzzas... 2 Domino's Double cheese Crunches... + 2 from Pizza-Hut
:D Talk about "not marching on an empty stomach"
Sumedh missed it all due to the fact that he had left for Pune...none of us did mind tho...

Talked with Muki abt whether there is any sense in 'trying to change the system'. I found myself taking a pessimistic view.....
A slightly over-generalisation is that most such efforts tend to end up as just an "addition to statistics"... to put it very harshly.....
Tho he cudnt refute it, what he said was that u need to do all that u can w/o anyones help... But is it possible?? In a place where people wreck other people's lives/loves just to satisfy their own egos, where people are killed to avenge a slight excess in festivities...

Is it possible to act out on ur own???
I accept that there exst miracle stories where a single person made a difference...
BUT THEN, we ignore the fact tha they may have had help silent and vocal, from sources....

Thus the ques does come.. whether wall our actions just add to the staistics.. or do the even make a difference....
