07/03/03 - For those of us who have lived on all six
continents it is not very difficult to see that in not so distant past
the whole world was united.

A couple of days ago, there was a program on PBS (NOVA) wherein they displayed a graphic that showed how the current continents emerged from two continents over a period of time (150 million yrs). In this graphic, India happened to be a part of a continent that included south america & africa and slowly it moved towards east and reached its current position. Heres a link that shows this tectonic animation.
 
This might also give a hint about how the earth transforms as the cycles of yugas, manvantaras and kalpas continue.
 
These are established facts but what is not established is the
link between the Mayan-Inca Civilization and India. The heart of Mayan
and Inca past civilizations are found in South and Central America and
the architectural links are mind boggling. In the lost and found city of
Machu Picchu in Peru the structures conforms exactly to the design
principles of Vastu Shastras of India as does the mansonry of
Sacsahuyaman in Cuzco. These simply cannot happen by accident and if
architectural digs are the required proof then the fact speaks for
itself.
 
May be the tectonic reconstruction theory can explain the reason for these similarities. But these civizations are not that old to carry the culture. Also this might be a reason why indians and south americans look similar.

Official Best Joke Announced - 10/03/02 Yahoo News

More than 40,000 jokes from 70 countries and two million critiques later, this is it:

"Two hunters are out in the woods when one of them collapses.
He doesn't seem to be breathing and his eyes are glazed. The
other man pulls out his phone and calls emergency services.

He gasps to the operator: "My friend is dead! What can I do?"
The operator in a calm, soothing voice replies: "Take it
easy. I can help. First, let's make sure he's dead."

There is a silence, then a shot is heard.

Back on the phone, the hunter says, "Ok, now what?"
