Oi!!! I'm from Richmond, VA. HA HA.
My dad's got many friends here at Norfolk. Last time I heard there are about 100 Bangladeshis part of a Bangladeshi Association here (in the Richmond area, about 3/4 yrs ago, I bet it's grown since). And there are many (including myself) who are not even part of that.

about 3 and a half hours away from me. Noy bad, I'm about 20 miles from DC.

Pundit · #6 June 14, 2003, 07:58 PM

I am 20 mi from dc too. I am 5 mi east of Dulles airport.

Did you know Tehsin, they have a very competitive league here.

I case you don't know already, I can tell you which Bengali bhai you can contact for more info.

Unfortunately, the intense rigor of my job doesn't allow me to do much - I usually spen the weekend recuperating. Cricket is just to heavy a game for me to play. Besides, professionally speaking (job point of view), the return is zero.

Too bad I think like that.

bangla_amar: nice to see a fellow hoki on board. I went to grad school there 89-91 in Comp Science and also Pamplin for my MBA. How large is the Bangladeshi contingent in Blacksburg these days?

bangla_amar · #17 July 2, 2003, 01:27 PM

Wow...great to know that Rafiq bhai! When I first came in Blacksburg, it was like 40. Now with the visa situation, barely any new students coming in....with families it is now like 25.

I really like blacksburg and if you plan to come to visit sometime you are most welcome...

bangla_amar · #18 July 2, 2003, 01:31 PM

Tehsin, thanks for the invitation.

We play cricket occasionaly with tennis ball. During the summer nobody is around..

May be you guys can come and we can play the great game of cricket again!

bangla amar:

when I was there I had a great mentor in prf saifur rahman in the EE dept. He is well known authority in alternative energy and I think has by now moved on to the National Science Foundation in DC. He really helped make Blacksburg more bearable than it was, I hope you have other people stepping up to fill those roles. When I got there I had just come down from 4 years in the West Virginia wilderness (Wesleyan) and needed to get to a big city again. So when a CS assistantship came along, I moved to the Northern Virginia center that Tech has with UVA. But you are right, Blacksburg is very cool. And I guess we will be beating up on UVA even more now with the move to the ACC!
