This is bull-shit. If someone posts a question related to Linux , what has "INDIA" got to do with it here. I don't think there is a special linux meant only for Indians. If some bloke has knowledge of Linux or Unix let him answer to a question else shut-up.

It never fails , we Indians think of making a fast buck even on mailing lists like this. That's hte reason we never get far in technological improvements.
I don't know of any mailing list or news-group servers which charge you for posting questions or pay you money if you answer one.

Responsible people don't make statements like (1) & (2) above.
