kirans point is taken, but since i believe that at least one of us has probably listened to the fellow or atleast Bhawani has, then, lets invest in his good faith and send an SMS. It may not do so much harm to our Equal opportunity demand and at the same time might land up giving the boy some leverage.
our demand for equal opportunity is a social norm that we need to establish to persons outside of our realm of blindies. within our limited judgement if we were to create a ground for one amongst us, the idea of social equality may not become challengeable. none the same now the time to take action has passed, as our SMS's may hold no value. but, perhaps in the future if such a request was found with a link to our access india site allowing all to listen to the talent of any candidate, then, not only would one be able to excercise ones own judgement about the person concerned but also remove scope to any misunderstanding. i hope my opinion will not be met with offense. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Kaja, Kiran" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Mukesh Sharma" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>; <[email protected]> Sent: Tuesday, September 12, 2006 11:32 AM Subject: Re: [AI] VOTE FOR LITTLE DIWAKAR > As I mentioned in my earlier posts, whether to vote or not to vote is an > individual decision of each of us.
