Yes! They too must have one. For selfish reasons, I hope so?

While driving, if we find a malfunction in the car, we do switch on the "hazard flickering lights" and steer aside off the yellow line. Then, if manageable, fix the defect or call for help.

European car manufactures have introduced a very useful new gadjet. It is the installation of an S.O.S system. In case a car meets with a serious mishap, someone just has to press the "May Day" button. And then not to panic. The electronic system shall automatically transmit signals regarding the identity and location of the invalid vehicle. The regional control station would direct the express dispatch of relief and recovery squad.

And that may save lives of the injured and alleviate sufferings of the survivors. The new facility has already been through empirical trials and tests. The omnipresent GPS networks facilitate the communications. EU States would have to allocate resources for the back-up systems. The cars equipped with the new system would cost upto 400 Euros, extra.

Robert Clements, would certainly accord a divine touch to this electronic phenomenon. He would confirm that all human beings are created by God, with built-in standard and secure conscience software. At any cross roads, it automatically transmits the signal for the right direction. Some people willfully ignore the call, and make the wrong decisions. If perpetuated, the ethical beacon becomes inaudible. And these human beings are transformed into the animal kingdom.

A group belonging to the latter category has elected me to be their prefect and spokesman. All of us have, one valid argument: we have still not acquired the status of an automobile! We may have robotic attitude, but we survive as living beings. One of the outspoken members suggested that: "Man’s challenge is women and women’s option is always material!"

The compulsion of their cohabitation – inspite of disparity – creates several problems. In view of non-conclusive evidence available to us, we can’t prove him wrong. In cases of severe conscience crises, some of the members have, however, acknowledged occasional faint whisper of ethereal signals.

Greek gods had not set very nice precedents. They did trespass across human domain and a few other moral boundaries. If Greek gods were immoral, the Egyptians ones were slave-drivers. The Pharaohs killed thousands of mortals deployed to erect monuments for them, to rest till their re-incarnations! Hindu avatars are several pleasant and some playful.

All of the gods, irrespective of their respective periods and locations, somehow, treasured gold more than the sum total of human life, in their domains. Being the prefect I had to convene an inaugural meeting. The Sinners got together and narrated their boastful qualifications. How readily they had scummed to various temptations.

FOUNDING STEP FATHERS.

Since some of us were a long step ahead of other ladies and gentlemen, we constituted ourselves as The Council of Founding Step Fathers. Almost unanimously, we resolved that the convener should conduct & proceed, as thus:

• To petition the subject specialists, to research and record, yin and yan, factors and vectors in chronological order.
• And to solicit authoritative comments from some con-artists regarding the juicy side of their vocations. We too, want to frame the: "Charter for Critical Path Analysis" – by or before mid June-MMVI.
  
  

For wider placements of candidate members of our association, we created several Sub-Committees to investigate, the exempt elite.

• Why lawyers are not subject to scrutiny for misquoting laws – where-ever they exist?
• Why sugeons’ abstract art is instantly burried?
• Why some staff have to be paid for the hardship to read the master piece newspaper editorials?
• Why wise TV anchors grill the politicians?. And why it is not otherwise?
• Why the drug and land mafias have not yet launched their respectable TV Channels? Others in the trade already have.
• Why the new crop of credit card and PR sales persons sound like car sales executives.
• Why all the quasi-lethal consumer products manufacturers have patron saints?
  
  We did have several other portfolios, but we felt short of the members. All present had one regret: why we had launched our society so late? And why all associates have claimed that their panic switches had fused out because of the manufacturing defects!
  
  Guilt, (not gold) however, is the cornerstone of human behavior. It works wonders! That’s one of the premier reasons for the adage, that all saints have a past!
  
  In the societies where some sorts of faith factors were predominant, the guilt had been almost institutionalized. The priest kings had developed a quid pro quo system to accord relief or license to the guilty. Of course for considerations. And that created fabulous wealth and power for the self-styled custodians of dispensing elite.
  
  I failed to reach Sarwar Sukhera, for guidance. He is already booked. Meantime I state and confirm that The Sinners must have some sort of future. And that too, not just for their beautiful eyes. Russians say it more explicitly as thus: Ne Za Krasivie Glaza!
