Are the tickets ready, honey eh?

Did you know / Could you believe that there're no toilets in the homes of rural people? There's a radio broadcast (possibly on telly too) everyday pleading rural people to build toilets in their homes. And, this is the 21st century? And, we've got nuclear weapons! My scholar friend George Everette recommends a symbiotic relationship but I strongly believe that it's our duty / moral obligation to help the underprivileged -- EVEN IF -- there's no reciprocity from their side. I'm absolutely appalled -- we've no compassion -- we'd go to a village and help build toilets -- but--hold on--nope--we're Indians, aren't we? We love foreign places--And, those places are exotic--and--of course--there're funky toilets too! We're honeymooners--Let the rural men, women and children squat somewhere in the open...
