I've had a question for some time. Not to get down on people from India,
but it appears to me that at least about 90% of these messages asking for
help originate from there. They mostly appear to be asking for help on
homework projects, although I couldn't swear to that.

Why aren't there so many e-mails asking for help on this and that coming
from the USA, France, Russia, Australia, etc. etc.? I'm really curious
what inspires these. Is it the way the educational system is set up there?
Is is some sort of cultural thing?

Inquiring minds would like to know!

Apparently, Indian schools and colleges go in for a lot of rote learning. 
When students have to actually think for themselves they are completely 
lost.
