What's the difference between Thai and Indian curry?

There is really no such thing as "Indian curry", except perhaps in the
quaint western notion of a highly-spiced stew-type dish vaguely "Indian"
in concept and execution. There is no such notion in India, at least not
any that would be commonly accepted. There is no pan-Indian food of any
kind, but in the case of "curry" this has to be particularly stressed.
To understand why, read this old thread:
