I don't have much (in fact any) experience in group discussion (you see, I couldn't call it GD). I participated once during my third year of engineering in the course called 'report writing'. I made a 'B' due to my terrific (yeah I am quite proud of it.) performance in it. There was a lil issue that a certain Miss De (from the audience (you see how popular I used to be (in fact the class was full at that time))) raised after the GD. She pointed out that I kept calling shooting screening. oh, excuse me, I didn't mention the topic which was about the controversy surrounding the movie 'water' which was planned to be shot at the ghats of varanasi. I kept saying that the director (I think it was deepa mehta) should not be allowed to screen it when all the time I meant to shoot it. I got royally screwed because of this. I could never state my point of view to the teacher as the hour got over immediately after it and I never cared to go and explain it
to the instructor.
Quite a background to support the galactic mistake on SRK's part. The point is in a general discussion a mistake is not a mistake if the group fails to point it out. If you are able to convince the group even when you are wrong, the mistake is shared by the entire group. In my case no one in the seven or eight people strong group realized the fallacy and they all seemed to auto-replace screen with shoot just like I was doing it unconsciously. So in the end the points should be cut from everyone's account. (You owe me Rs24000 Missi as I missed out a place
in the top 10 for the next two sems due to the 'B') Now back to SRK, if you watched the interview you'd've realized how easily he got out of the embarrassing situation Karan had put him in. It doesn't matter whether galaxy is a sub or super set of Universe because SRK made a point and
everyone present agreed. <- that, btw, I'm not sure is a period or a point.
