In my mountaineering course, we were taught “always keep your ears and eyes open”. May be this is the reason, I sometimes have wierd observations. Mumbai friends know few such observations about Mumbai locals, etc. Since last year, I have been trying to collate data to prove my hypothesis on possible selection bias at XLRI.
