I am so irritated with the amount of Honking that happens on the roads of Bangalore – it just amazes me how rude and inconsiderate people are when you are in front of them and are trying your best not to fly over a speed breaker or trying to avoid a ditch – how they think that it is their right to overtake from the left hand side – how comfortable they are not following rules and honking to rudely communicate that you should not follow them yourself.

And these are just the ones that link back to me: I obscured the names of the other blogs, as I don’t want to incriminate them for being so silly as to re-run my posts. (I am aware of the irony that I’m doing little original writing right now, doing a lot more linking with minor, banal commentary, and that’s when more people grab my posts.)

It is no secret that growth of the pharmaceutical industry has slowed to single digits in the past five years or more.
