>How do you like those telemarketing calls or service calls when the person you are talking to has a strong Indian accent? Many times it is difficult or impossible to understand such a person. Never fear! This could change in the near future as all our children might be exposed to teachers from India. Within a few years our entire nation could be speaking with an Indian accent!

I don't mind the accent - it's not more off than Australian, Scottish or Irish. But if this spreads, I'll be glad. I'll finally hear all the consonants in a word, and thus be able to understand my neighbors!
