In reply to:

many of whom are from India. I find their spoken English to be some of the most mellifluous tones I've heard from anyone

Fiberbabe - I agree! I have met many Indians here in Israel, and it is always such a pleasure to listen to them speak! It's even relaxing!

Some time ago, I met a man who had been in Israel for quite a few years and spoke Hebrew so well that it was hard to tell that he was not a native-born Israeli, except when I asked where he had lived before immigrating to Israel. He replied, with that wonderful sing-song sound, "Bom-bay"!
