Not Victoria's Secret either, Vandana Shiva, perhaps my last word on her
for now.

At an anti-World Bank conference in DC several years ago, the Southern
representatives, tired of what the Northerners were saying, walked out and
set up their own impromptu anti-anti conference. When they were finally
settled, someone remarked that there was no one from India there. All eyes
turned on Shiva, who is Indian and was there. The person who made the
remark regrouped, saying, "Well, you know what I mean, really from India.
It's not like you represent any constituency." Shiva conceded that this was
probably true.
