Chandrayan has landed on the moon, yet we superstitiously declare a holiday for schools on the day of the solar eclipse to avoid children "being exposed to the evil effects of the eclipsed sun."
Some of the more cautious (and sensible?) newspapers termed it as a holiday to enable the children to watch the celestial phenomenon.
The woman who comes to clean my house left early because she has to be safely at home before the Moon glides in front of the Sun.
I wish we could really put the education that we get, into practice!
