And further violations will ensure de-listing from the mailing list. </LISTADMIN_NOTIFICATION> Hey PK.. Everyone knows of your contributions to lug. You need no intorduction as far as lug is concerned. - The list youve given beloow is too litle in fact. I can add another 20kb of text to it stating your scarifices for lug. PK needs no introduction. Its like Kapil Dev saying : "I have taken so many wickets for india" , "I captained India to win the only World Cup", etc, etc,. But Remember - The fact is No one blames Dinesh Mongia or Murli Kartik for losing matches. But always to Dravid/Saurav/Sachin. People from whom expectations are high are expected to perform like top men. Tolerence is one such quality. LISTADMIN is now in a tollerant mode. (Thank GOD!). So please you also keep your tollerant mode preserved mode as well. -Saugata --- peekay <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > since this is an expression of opinion in full > public view .. and > sadly for me too .. since it has been pointedly > targetted at me > i will reply .. on the list .. while putting on > record here that i > did try to resolve the situation (of wrong > perceptions) off the > list thru direct emails to indra, sankar, rajesh > > > ----- Original Message ----- > From: "Sankarshan Mukhopadhay" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > > <snipped> > > > ....
