DEAR ALL I SECOND TANAY IN THIS WRITE UP..... Giby ji: TAKE CARE WHAT YOU ARE ABOUT.... NOT nice to keep being churlish and telling people off... You have a lot of knowledge... my Grand ma used to say as the mango tree gets full of fruits it bows down more and more...
so it is with human beings...as the knowledge increases, truly increases, we should become more humble... Please take your cues from Gurucharanji and Garg ji and Dinesh Valke ji .. .Dr. Vijayashankar Raman et al.. They may correct us from time to time, but they NEVER TELL US OFF..... A group like this is only as good as it gets because of the Knowledge base of its members and the members' collegiality, congeniality and friendships that develop among its members.... PLEASE ALL, LETS KEEP IT THAT WAY...
