express one's opinions. And I agree those who don't agree are free to
write to the Sentinel.
And I am with you on the doom and gloom front too.

If you learn the Assamese script you will kill two birds with one stone as the
Assamese and the Bengali scripts are virtually similar. But you must have a
valid reason to learn a new language. Ou time is valuable and there is a saying

Ram:
Had it not been for your drawing attention to it, I never would have read it.
BTW, you missed highlighting the main idea :
These retarding syndromes of unpunctuality, absenteeism and a
general tendency of
