I suppose that depends on your point of view. It did not attract much interest here, but the folks at 
Diplomacy_Politics seemed fairly interested.

So what is considered to be "earth-shattering" in your neck of the woods, Deepak? Is Shilpa Shetty still making 
the front pages? I see that Jade Goody is on the front page of one of our tabloids today. She was allegedly "too 
angry" for the anger management classes. :-)
