Sorry, I sent my previous email before I saw this. I am away from BLR until June, but I will be happy to join the group after I return. I haven¹t met many of you, looking forward to that.

Thanks Aparna for the kick start !! We, a few butterfly india members in Bangalore were thinking about this from long back. we had some informal talks also. We have some regular butterfliers like Ashok Sengupta, Ajith U, Nitin, Harsha Kumar, Rohit G, (and many others) Hope all Bangalore butterfliers can meet soon and then decide about the future actions. We humbly request the mentors to give the necessary guidance and support. We would like to invite suggestions from all of you. cheers haneesh From: Aparna V K <[email protected]> To: [email protected] Sent: Tuesday, 6 March 2012 9:25 AM Subject: Re: [ButterflyIndia] Butterfly India needs a little more support from us. Hi, A while ago there was a discussion on the group to start outings in different regions. Can we start this again? A lot of new comers like me can learn a lot through such outings and interactions. I live in bangalore and I see that quite a few of us from around here. Can we start 2 outings per month basis? I am willing to co-ordinate the arrangements. -- Aparna On Mon, Feb 20, 2012 at 10:49 AM, Krushnamegh Kunte <[email protected]> wrote: > > > > > Dear Nelson, > > I agree with all your points.
