I would like to bring to your attention that Yahoo India has stooped to terribly cheap levels. They have introduced a new emoticon on their website that is a cheap drawing of a Brahmin priest (mockingly drawn).

Dear Sir,
Please, refer to your webpage mentioned below.

The sixth picture is a plain ridicule of the Hindu Brahmin community of
southern india. It is nauseating to think that a
global giant like Yahoo could stoop so low as to make
cheap fun of a community in the course of its
commercial activity. It offends my sensibilities and
honour. I understand that many citizens wrote to your
company to remove the picture of ridicule; but to no
avail.
I seek your immediate attention in the matter and
action on priority. In the absence of a rectification
from your end, I will be constrained to initiate
protests in my own way.
1. I will wind up all my Yahoo usage in the Internet.
2. I will extensively campaign against Yahoo,
highlighting the breach of value system.
(docs.yahoo.com/info/values)
3. I will actively promote rival coroporations who are
sensitive to the people's feelings.
4. I will join like-minded persons and lauch a media
campaign against racism.
5. I will initiate legal proceedings against your
company for violating the fundamental rights
guaranteed by the Indian Republic.
I hope that you will not create a situation for me to
take these five steps for saving the honour of the
brahmin community from ridicule by your corporation.
Sincerely,
