Finally! Some straight answers on something we didn't understand:
For centuries, Hindu women have worn a dot on their foreheads.
Most of us have naively thought this was connected with tradition
or religion, but he Indian Embassy in Ottawa has recently revealed
the true story.
When a Hindu woman gets married, she brings a dowry into the union.
On her wedding night, the husband scratches off the dot to see whether
he has won a convenience store, a gas station, a donut shop, a taxi cab,
or a motel in the United States .
If nothing is there, he must remain in India to answer telephones and
provide us with technical support.
