It's sort of funny when someone screams "rigid indian caste system." FYI - in the workplace, in most cities, the caste has nothing to do and is never thought of. I don't know what my fellow mates caste is, I don't care, I don't bother. It is true that rural india still has a long way to go from eradicating casteism, but urban indian has moved along quite well, especially in the work place. Some things take time to go away, especially if it's been around for about 2000 years. It's not like desegragation in the US happened 20 years after US independence, likewise - we are on our way to getting rid of it.
When your kids are watching barney, the TV will mysteriously show slides of barney sex toys in between and force you to install SP4 with TV-malware -detection tools
having been in bombay/mumbai I can imagine some of the super-hero stuff local spidey could do there
1. rescues local gal by getting her water from a mile-long water queue
2. gets a harried late office worked into the rush hour train
But I think a lot of villains could embarass him by attacking his dhoti, though, not secure like tights...
being an Indian but pretty much brought up on american comics (somehow the local comics lacked the graphics quality and imagination), I would be curious how sudhakarman..or spiderman develops:)

And especially if you register with an ID called 'fatkimjong' (and the password also as fatkimjong)
:P
do you think they'll nuke me for using such an ID? no reference to their leader of course
