hey nice to hear that Dharam ..
so u still following Anand's career or have given up on him topping the charts...

care to come online sometime for a game ?

P.S. .. common sense says that odds are on favor of one of the interview panelists being an old hat at chess. So, unless u sure of ur game & its nuances.. dont take a risk coz u used to beat ur younger cousin a zillion times.
idea is to be offbeat .. fake it if u can carry it well .. some I hv heard of are 'Russian History Lovers' & 'Penchant to collect company Logos' & making it to iims

"Hell no.. they scare the crap out of me"
"Then why do you always go sailing when the winds are at their worst?"
"To be free of crap"

whatever

How can that be true Dharam?
For example, why do you think we still follow every post of yours?
