Is this an Evil Kenevil type jump in logic or a Super Dave type jump?

Heh heh. It must be late if you can't even spell Evel Knievel correctly! Love the Super Dave Osbourne reference (remember "Bizarre") but it's Knievel all the way...on one of his better jumps.

Lal: It seems the British never forget the Mutiny of 1857.
Indy: Yes, well y'know, I think there are other events before The Mutiny, going back a century, back to the time of Clive, that are more interesting.

The win goes to Smiffy. (Now to get back to the Thuggee thread because I've meaning to bring up this very subject.)

I get Patel as an Indian equivalent to Smith but is "Dan-tana" a reference to Dan Tanna (Robert Urich) from the late '70s TV show, "Vega$"?

@XanaduMel: If you ask, "Is it male?" then there's no need to ask if it's female. That way, you don't waste a question on 50/50 answer. Just thought I'd point that out for the future so no harm intended.
