Recipe for the proud Indian.

Ingredients:
~ One newly-minted Indian-origin tech CEO outside India.
~ One taxpayer-funded higher education institute with an intense entrance exam that culls mercilessly.
~ Patriotism to taste.

Instructions:
~ Take in the cream of Indian society at the height of their youth, the top 0.5% of the eligible population, and put them through an elite government-funded institute.
~ Take the top 15% of these and put them into Ivy League (and equivalent) schools (where they have a better chance at admissions because they are already the cream of the cream) in the USA.
~ Mix them well in the valley ecosystem where the cream of the world comes to take risks with youth, intelligence, looks, money, and their very lives.
~ Wait till one of them makes CEO of an iconic brand.
~ Sprinkle selection bias liberally.
~ Marvel at their creaminess and credit their Indian origin for it.
~ Enjoy with a side dish of patriotism.
