#1 The sad part is that much of the letter is probably true. Maybe john frum can critique it for us. I was involved in designing a high vacuum pumping station for evacuating electronic tubes to be used in music amplifiers. It's destination was the Shimla district in India. The rules and regulations related to importation of capital equipment were utterly draconian. Our Indian counterparts explained that the import laws were designed to force new business startups to bring in only new equipment so that they either bought used Indian gear or went through so much financial stress that they would go out of business and leave behind all of their new equipment to be siezed by the bankruptcy courts.
