@jillsdaniel I would say that those Indian numbers are probably not accurate because if you take the element of corruption in those budgets the actual deliverable percentage is probably lower.

In other news, Ba'it went into labour at 2AM. She woke me up for help. Difficult delivery lasting 4 hours and I had to help her bring the babies out, clear out the sac and assist her. They all look black but more dark brown black in the light. The mommy & kittens are doing well.

@Peter_J_Beck We can hardly call our species Intelligent. Just because we can do certain things in technology and throw primitive rockets into space doesn't make us so. Surely we're not alone and maybe aliens avoid us because we are idiotic, look what we've done to each other & the planet.

If it wanted, it could have easily struck him. Merely trying to tell the guy to leave it alone and if needs to relocate, don't do that!
