This morning I recieved a phone call soliciting me to use there outsourced services. She had a full on Indian accent and everything.

I suppose I should have asked her why should I outsource to India when I can outsource programming to China for half the rate but I was too suprised and just told her thanks but no thanks.

It didn't mention anything about results or quality at all, which was interesting.
