Usually, one reaches the village after a long bike ride or after a walk in the hot sun - tired and thirsty. The Hospitable villagers offer all they can(mostly Sprite!) to freshen you up.
Try expaining to a fisherman wats a Village Information Centre. I was getting blank stares and "Whats new in this" kind of looks.
Then, I started showing pics of a Village Information Centre, stored in in my Lappie (an old Toshiba with Linux ;-) ) .
As you start explaining, ppl nod out of courtesy maybe. But, you know you have got your point through when you see the sparkle in the villagers' eye. Thats when the discussion picks up like whirlwind.
