At the end of meeting there will be a invitation for the dinner, We have to send a separate note conforming our presence for the dinner. In that we can make reservations like Pure Veg, Non drinking and smoking. This will be convened to them by their translator and there will be a separate venue for both. So far nobody forced me to drink, i thanked them several times the way they arranged the dinner and motive of inviting someone. They will read the note and they politely treat us and the end will be a pleasant one and still our friendships lasts. As they are matured people they don't force, to the surprise i found even some one from their side is strict in their food. Its basically because of their weather condition it is like that, my senior went to Baikonur cosmodrome several times during the launch. He said at least he needs 3-4 clothes to protect him from the climate. Quote: There's a big holiday for Indians coming soon, isn't there? Yes its deepavali, its a festival of lights, I have already bought clothes, sweets and gifts for my sister and mom and some for my friends and this time its a big schedule and dasara is already over. till 2nd week of January it will be total enjoyment. I bought my new HONDA in the festival time.

So I have to agree completely with my british columbian buddy here, make sure you communicate to them all the different things that are forbidden up front before hand so that there can be no misunderstandings. Just realize that if they are decent folks they will be accomodating, but also realize that you might offend them, and in that case you will need courage to stay resolut in what you believe. I think my signature is eerily applicable in this situation! bswaminathan wrote: actually i was interested in designing a magnetic rail type take off for UAV as well as VTOL combined mode. where a 100's of UAV can take off automatically and land. the UAV will take off from an unmanned airbase and all the instructions are fed remotely and it can carryout complicated tasks. the UAV can swim if shot over an ocean also it can go in roadways when landed in a proper terrain, it has drogues to decrease the landing jolt. but i didn't get proper support from one of the professor in US. he said he is not interested in these. he is from Embry-riddle aeronautical university, daytona beach. Don't build this! Flying is for People not Robots!!!!
