Now, now, why would a discussion on this net take an acrimonious bent? I try to never take general discussions on Assam or India for that matter on this net, on a personal level. If I did, that would not be something I would proud of. But be that as it may, that's NOT in me, but you are always free to publish my select quotes. I have to get published somewhere, why not here:-) I am quite sure *I* am the only culprit on these shores :-) --Ram On Tue, Aug 17, 2010 at 8:59 AM, Chan Mahanta <cmaha...@gmail.com> wrote: > Funny, isn't it Ram ? > > But it may NOT be so funny, if I publish a set of selected quotes.
