When I purchased my first Lambretta scooter in August,1968, I used to get about 5.2 litres in Rs.5/- only i.e. less than a rupee a litre. In 1884 when I returned from Germany I used to get it 3.2 litres for Rs.20/-only which is just Rs.6.25 a litre.I have kept a record of my fillings in a diary for my scooter as well as my car,but no body stops driving. In 2002 in USA the rate was $1.45 a gallon and today it is $4.40 a gallon but people are still driving. Well may be some dream day we have vehicles to run on air,but we wont be happy as we expect everything free of cost without paying taxes to Govt. and stealing electricity/water etc.Alas we cant steal petrol.

I will remember your age!
This is a good way to know how old the people are, esp these guys swearing and fighting and writing all sorts of crap in this forum!!!
i thought only educated use computers and therefore will behave properly! but the way this forum is being used, damn it, it will take another 3 generations to see the India I have in my dream! Free from religion, caste, colour, north-south, quotas, etc.
