Dear Aditya Bondyopadhyay, Mr. White is also mighty pleased that you have found pleasure in his musings.
Mr. White is also mighty please that Mr. Bondyopadhyay concedes his mistake...a beginning maybe, but it is always better late than never. Regrettably, Mr. Bondyopadhyay, the subject title Judgmental Mr. Bondyopadhyay was added after the fact by a person(s). It was inappropriate to say the least for someone to credit me with words that I did not commit to print. Should you doubt my word, I would be happy to forward the original email. Mr. White is at a loss to understand what Mr. Bondyopadhyay is attempting to convey when he states, "intentional use of caveatful terminology..." While Mr. White is well aware of what a caveat is ( a warning, a caution or admonition), he was, after gleaning through various dictionaries, unable to locate a reference to caveatful. Ostensibly, English may not be Mr. Bondyopadhyay's mother tongue and as such, the grammatical error can be excused. While Mr. Bondyopadhyay's grammatical error may be forgiven (actually congratulations are offered as Mr. Bondyopadhyay works to augment his vocabulary and use of the English language...a beginning maybe, but always better late than never), the question begging to be asked is what was Mr. Bondyopadhyay warning us, the readers of his two liner, of ? Perhaps Mr. Bondyopadhyay was exercising his civic duty and wanted to alert us to reinforcing stereotypes perhaps or God forbid, something heinous like a less than rational hysterical queen. Perhaps Mr. Bondyopadhyay should stay clear of the rhetoric and concentrate on that which he knows best. That, Mr. Bondyopadhyay, remains your secret and yours alone and Mr. White will leave you alone to savor those secrets (my humblest apologies as I took the liberty of correcting some of the morphological errors). Best Regards, yours sincerely, Ray White ==== i gave the subject heading.. i feltthe writer's email implied that... regards moderator ________________________________ From: Aditya Bondyopadhyay <[email protected]> To: [email protected] Sent: Sun, July 25, 2010 3:08:45 AM Subject: Re: g_b GB Party- Judgmental Mr Bondyopadhyay Dear Ray White, Mr Bondyopadhyay is mighty pleased that his two liner has helped you wonder so much. A beginning maybe, but its always better late than never. To wonder is wonderful. Mr Bondyopadhyay concedes his mistake in thinking that the name of the GB party is "Let's Scream" and not the name of the venue. That mistake was pointed out by another two liner and was well taken. And having acknowledged that, Mr. Bondyopadhyay wholeheartedly agrees, stemming as it does from his limited experience in such spaces, that there can be no better or more apt name for a disco than "Let's Scream". Mr. Bondyopadhyay's numb eardrums that lasted 3 days post the last such experience is a mighty testament to that. As to Mr. Bondyopadhyay being judgmental, in spite of Mr Bondyopadhyay's intentional use of caveatful terminology like 'stereotype' et al, that remains your wonder and your alone...and Mr. Bondyopadhyay leaves your alone to savor them at your wonderful best.
