Hello Mr Moderator,
Last night, a championship event was held
for the Scripp's Spelling Bee. The contenders
were all school children, no adults allowed.
With three rounds left to go, 8 school children
remained. At the end of the competition, all 8
school children remained standing.
As a result, with the judges having run out of
words for the school children to spell, it was
declared that all 8 school children were the
official winners of the competition.
Octo-Champs. Of all the school children in
the USA competing for the grand prize of being
Master Champ, 8 were declared Octo-Champs by
the esteemed judges of the competition.
There is a point as to why I am bringing this
up to you, the official Moderator of the Fidonews.
Of those 8 school children, 7 of those school
children were of Indian descent. Which clearly
shows that Indians are the best spellers in the
whole world. Or at least those who have made
their way to the USA.
Now think of what this means.
India is the largest democracy on earth. And
India has just conducted a national election, with
some 900 million Indian voters participating.
No need for Indians to use electronic voting,
as everybody uses paper ballots. I mean, Indians
are the best spellers in the world, and almost
never make mistakes reading what is on the ballot.
Therefore, I move that the Fidonews include
articles written by Indians, in their own native
script. Just think of the time the editor would
save, not having to make corrections for spelling
mistakes.
So. What do you say? Does my proposal pass
the editor's test? 8 school kids already have,
including 7 of Indian descent ...
Congrats to all the kids who won. They deserve it.
