THERE'S A PEN STAND ON MY DESK at home. A simple, can-shaped holder with about a dozen pens sticking out. There are some really nice, expensive pens that I've collected over time. And several ordinary ones too.

Persisting Pollution Problems
AS RESIDENTS IN CITIES breathe poison year after year, responsibility is laid at many doors – a result of the usual buck-passing amongst politicians and bureaucrats. Each one assigns primary blame to a cause for which s/he or their organisation bears no responsibility. In Delhi, the state government says pollution is mainly due to stubble burning, the responsibility of other neighbouring states (especially those governed by other parties). They, in turn, point to data which says that pollution due to stubble burning is but a small percentage and that too ends in November. Similarly, ritualists and enthusiasts claim the same for crackers: at most they cause a few-days' spike. As our previous column noted, we hardly ever get to the real culprit, the root cause.

Missing Socks and the Spotlight Effect
I STILL REMEMBER THAT DAY, like it happened yesterday. I arrived in Jaipur to speak at a bank's leadership team offsite. I was quite looking forward to it. I had done everything right. Left home early, reached the airport on time for an early morning flight, landed and checked into the hotel. I polished my shoes, had a quick shower, got dressed, slipped on my favourite jacket, and then sat down to wear my shoes. And I froze.
