    Sree Sreenivasan@sree 31 May My Indianness isnt defined by the documents I carry in my pocket, but the heart I wear on my sleeve. #sroopaUSA Sree Sreenivasan@sree 31 May I'm sentimental about all this. I will always be Indian - by birthright, if not by birth. I was born in Japan & NYC is my home. #sroopaUSA Sree Sreenivasan@sree India and America, together, made me the man I am today (& connected me w/@roopaonline). I am eternally grateful to both nations. #sroopaUSA Sree Sreenivasan@sree Stats from todays oath ceremony at 26 Federal Plaza: 150 new citizens from 43 nations (Albania to Zambia; only two from India!) #sroopaUSA
