V. Subhash once said:
Don't wait for a time when you think you will be rich. Give from whatever you have with you NOW. That is charity.
Click here for the archive of the CIA web page that was once available at http://www.cia.gov/cia/english_rewards.htm. Arabic version is still available on the CIA website at http://www.cia.gov/cia/arabic_rewards.htm Yes. The CIA actually has a web page that STILL offers cash rewards for information on Weapons of Mass Destruction (WMD) in Iraq.

V. SUBHASH

Welcome to the cyber perch of a rara avis known as V. Subhash (me). I am a 5½-year-old (see photo) living in India. I came up with this palace of thousand delights to showcase my creative talents.

I wrote all the content and the code (ASP, HTML, CSS, JavaScript and VBScript) for this website. The "Virtual V. Subhash" Adobe (Macromedia) Flash animation was created by freelancer Marco Souza from Brazil.
