The Americans are coming!-INDIASPORA-Chidanand Rajghatta-Columnists-Opinion-The Times of India

Americans aren't as verbose or eloquent (your call) now. A US general, who was asked to surrender by an Axis commander, is said to have responded with one word — "Nuts." Asked about their India experience, Americans encapsulate Twain's sentiment with a single word — "Wow." Follow up and ask them "Wow good or wow bad?" and they'll say, "Wow good and wow crazy." Welcome to India, folks; may your tribe increase, even if the nuclear deal goes into deep freeze.
