    Default Is it in the water?

    Do you feel more and more the damn world is going more insane?! Get this: China has just completed the world's biggest dam, built over China's San Andreas Fault: http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/12880810/

    I guess it is in the water...

    the gitas are kinda like old testament for hindus. if recollections serves, its a story about krishna explaining the universe and how it works, the nature of humanity stuff, to some prince (arjuna?) before an epic battle. very simplified but i believe accurate.

    It is the Hindu "Bible" for lack of a better term (as an athiest I am not the best to make this comparison). It translates roughly from the original sanskrit as The Divine song of God.
    Take a look at these sites if you like.
