John,<\/p>\n
The Samstone you gave me is not yet in place but wil soon be thanks to a young colleague of ours, Geeta Kumar, with whom I am working here since a year.
\nShe was touched by the Samstones story and will see to it that gets deposited at the foot of a vase in the reception are of our India Research Lab, a fitting place for a stone in the memory an IBM Fellow’s son, I felt.
\nAs soon as that is organized she will send me a picture to forward to you. Now if you want exact coordinates for the Samstones.org Googlemap, that is a lttle harder given the state of cartography down here.
\nBut let me try: if you search for Delhi, India on Googlemaps you’ll land on a map that shows the Indira Gandhi International Airport if you zoom to some proper level.
\nThe airport is bordered on its west side by a road called Gurgaon Road (in fact where we were meeting at IBM yesterday).
\nJust west of that road is another sort-of-parallel road which, if you zoom in to the right level is marked Nelson Mandella Road.
\nIn between Gurgaon and Nelson Mandella roads is pretty empty space; this is where IRL has set up shop.
\nGooglemaps have not yet caught up with that but I attach a local map designed by some natives of here.
\nThe IBM IRL lab is on the red ISID campus below, pretty exactly where the second I of ISID is on the map.
\nI am afraid I cannot be more precise than that without my GPS … which I left home since I was not going to drive \ud83d\ude09
\nI hope that is all fine with you.<\/p>\n
Kind regards \/ Freundliche Gr\u00fcsse \/ Cordialement<\/p>\n
