Welcome Pooja. I too studied architecture -- but only for a while. I learned the error of my ways and moved on to serfdom in the IT industry. We have, therefore, nothing in common. :-) Welcome, nevertheless. When I studied architecture I was in the camp that considered architecture an engineering problem that included aesthetics as one of the requirements to be fulfilled. I annoyed (and was annoyed by) the crowd for whom it was Art (with a capital A).

Cousin, you're even more annoying than usual when you allude to this mysterious membership list that only you can see. Almost as annoying as when you shamelessly name drop. [1] ;-) -- b [1] The primary annoyance is that when *I* want to name drop, I'm reduced to saying, "I don't actually know so-and-so but I know Udhay, who does."
