deals and the office workers rushing to catch the next train. (Yes the same train you targetted)
Fathom this: Within 3 hours of the blasts, long queues of blood donating volunteers were seen outside various hospital, where most of the injured were admitted. By 12 midnight, the hospital had to issue a notification that blood banks were full and they didn't require any more blood. The next day, attendance at schools and office was close to 100%, trains & buses were packed to the brim, the crowds were back.
The city has simply dusted itself off and moved one - perhaps with greater vigour.
We are Mumbaikers and we live like brothers in times like this. So, do not dare to threaten us with your crackers. The spirit of Mumbai is very strong and can not be harmed.
Please forward this to others. U never know, by chance it may come to hands of a terrorist in Afghanistan, Pakistan or Iraq and he can then read this message which is specially meant for him!!!

Dear Mumbaikers: Very well said and in true spirit you have proven it after last week's incidents.
you are not alone and the whole country is with you and you know our love for you and how you work hard to keep economy moving and how united at this hour you are without caring for self, donating blood, assisting in traffic, clearing debris, helping hospitals and staff, assisting fellow citizens and police. Wish all of us are there with you physically at this time but have to support thru sms and other means seeing things on TV. this is bombay and this is india. The beef eating Pakistanis have not learnt lesson of 1992 blasts and what is said here by our friend holds good for any city of India.
