My understanding is the the Indian parents, American children 
combination creates its own category.

And for those Indian engineers aspiring to return, it is a big
challenge convincing the Indian wife that an American salary, Chinese
food, British accommodation, Spanish weather, Irish beer are now
available in Bangalore. Not sure about the French Mistress though. ^_^

It just seems to me to that those that leave the country need to believe
that they indeed did the right thing and did *not* abandon their
country,while people who stayed back would like to believe that things are
improving. Now it is up to you to decide what you want to buy into. 

Lots of people tell me that America is all about perception, India is no
different my friend.

I am sorry. I get my impression of Indian life from those who were born
there but have chosen to leave.

I think these stereotypes should be expanded...

Definition of heaven: American salary, Indian wife, Chinese food,
British accommodation, Spanish weather, Irish beer and Swiss
organisation.

Definition of hell: American wife, British food, Chinese accommodation,
Indian salary, Irish weather, Spanish organisation and Swiss beer.

Thas was cheap. I have spent more than 75% of my earnings living a while
in London inspite of my 80% *pay boost*. To boot, I got a severe stomach
bug as well! (So much for my third world immunities!)

I promise you that you will not spend more than 40% of your earnings
living in Bangalore and you are unlikely to bitten by any bug other than
the "India Bug". May be you should give Shilpa a call some time later.

ps: This thread reminds of this infantile definitions of "Heaven and
Hell":

Definition of heaven: American salary, Indian wife, Chinese food and
British accommodation. 

Definition of hell: American wife, British food, Chinese accommodation and
Indian salary

I can vouch for the British food!
