Texas CS Dept., Austin, Texas Lines: 12 i have been following, with a great deal of pleasure, the heated discussion about india and the media. regardless of the validity of the points made, it has brought into sharp focus many of india's problems, and more to the point, the role of US-resident indians in resolving some of those problems. i'd like to see a discussion on the role of US-indians on a broader scale. what do we perceive as our roles in the future of india? just what influence does this perception have (as opposed to monetary, professional and other personal factors) in our career decisions? remember, we may be small in number, but we are a very significant part of our country's educated and, in particular, technological manpower.
