Now, now, Jugal :-)!
No need to throw anyone out, yet. I hope anyway. Because the moment we attrempt to throw anyone out of the small community, we get into real trouble. I can't imagine how YOU could propose to throw out the dissenter/s Jugal. Or for that matter me. Aren't WE, you, I, some of the perennial and most insufferable of dissenters? But I won't like to be THROWN OUT. I yearn to be an insider, to be liked, to be accepted. Its just that my finger types out stuff that I can't control, and keeps me out in the cold. I wouldn't wish to see YOU thrown out either, just because you are in the minority. Confrontation has more than one dimension. Some confrontations are necessary. They are the ones founded on principles. But there are confrontations that are quite un-necessary. They have nothing to do with principles or ideology. The two do not hold the same stature. I didn't get the comment on the leadership point. Maybe I missed the context here.
