Hi!

I lived in India for a couple years, and I once had a driver named Deepak in Mumbai who said that he had been your driver as well. He was an amazing gentleman, and we drove to Goa together and swam in the ocean (his first time, despite growing up by in Goa.) I just wanted to know if you remembered Deepak (and potentially his son) and collectively appreciate what a fantastic dude he was.

samizdat is a concept that comes up a bit in Infinite Jest.

While I find your cynicism refreshing, Deepak never claimed that he was Boyle's long term driver or to have had a meaningful/long term relationship with him. He was just enough of a character that hoped he would remember him.
