That was perceptive of you Sushanta. Manoj, I know Bhuban Kokaideu, nearly 80, very well. He is from Namti, same place I grew up in. Worked for BBC for a long time and lives with his family at London and in Spain parts of the year.
Jyotirmay does have a point. But I am quite sure BK has been doing what he has been, in his way of keeping the semblance of a life ticking in this net. I used to be a major trouble-maker in Assamnet. But I have gotten tired of the same old, same old, even though I am open to lighting small fires now and then. Unfortunately one or two participants cannot really generate a meaningful discourse. There is a dearth of participants, perhaps due to apathy, perhaps due to a lingering fear of speaking openly and frankly and perhaps because of a weariness, like yours truly's. Even though I have a nominal presence in Facebook, I rarely participate there either. So my absence from this net has had nothing to do with social or anti-social media of any kind :-).
