in reply to When are you moving to India to find a better job?

In addition to the flaws noted by other monks, I noticed these:
When Mumbai freezes over

Do you have any family in Mumbai? I do. Thankfully none of them were hurt in the recent floods, but many others were less fortunate.

After I finish this Hindi-on-Tape course.

Hindi is only one of many languages spoken in India, and you won't many who speak it in south India where most of the programming jobs are.

So other than alienating the Indian monks who visit the Monastery, what is the point of this poll?

    I realise that being in India your family are unfamiliar with freezing, but please note that it is very different from flooding :-)
      You've missed the point. A city being 'frozen over' would be just as distressing to its inhabitants as if were flooded.
        Interesting take, I'd have thought you'd be more insulted by the slightly oblique reference that Mumbai was Hell.
        Common slangish phrase: When hell freezes over.
