Airline Megazines...

I recently read an article in one of the megazines that are available in airlines. This one was in Indian Airlines. I never read these megazines because they are just full of ads and have more colorful pictures that actual text part. Anyway, this article "Footmarks of progress" was about 60 years of Indian independence and things that show that we have progressed. It had Maruti car, television, bollywood, outsourcing, malls & multiplexes, beuty pagents, T20 cricket, Metros, mobile phones etc listed there.... Some of them can be debated but they were acceptable. But last two on the list were Item numbers and Aerated drinks!!! How the hell cheap, sleazy dances and carbonised drink full of sugar are "footmarks of progress"? Really surprising what kind of nonsense these megazines print... May be that's why no one reads them and they are free!
