Penultimate Pryor Post

I expect that my final post will be to direct folks to a new blog, one whose name doesn't lead people to think I'm still in India. Until then, I recommend listening to the full audio report by NPR reporter Daniel Zwerdling about a "chipati man" in Chandigarh, the capital of the Indian states of Punjab and Haryana (http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=105359019). My mouth watered as I listended to his account of a roadside meal of dal, subzi, and chipati. The commentary on the rapid social and economic changes in India rang true, although they were less evident in Jodhpur than many other cities.
