hi,
top-posting is one thing
however, as far as the "non-english" part goes, I think its time we climb
outta our colonial slumber and encourage people to use native language.
"roman" hindi like the one ankit was trying to use is quite ok. The indian
army uses it to a large extent (part of the colonial legacy).
catch ya later (Ive gotta UnWire Life!!!)
