@TamalBandyo@CrisilLimited Do they ever calculate cost of thali in restaurants? Never known those to ever drop, and which is perhaps also a good measure of cost of goods than household presumptive costs, as another countervailing indicator.

It would be nice if all the machinations, drama and intrigue at my favorite radio station, @wnyc, was confined just to their on-air programming that so many of us in New York City are happy to support. Endless, it has been in recent years, even amid all the usual funding woes.
