Dear Surajit
I know you like FBI and Bengal plants

so I dont want to create controversy
basically nice books
but
remember they are very old

things have changed
classifications have changed
things have been further classified ie separated
or lumped back together

just as it happens in cancer classification

if I followed 100 or 90 or 70 year old books to classify a tumor now... and
not pay attention to what's the latest ...
my colleagues and patients ... even the guy off the street would laugh me
off...


Please dont take this personally
that's the way the science works,  you know that..

and may be we need to get newer classification schemes...keys

In more than 50 years of making diagnosis... I have learnt that nothing is
ever fixed or written in stone
no body died and went to heaven and came back to tell us the classification
key is written in stone
nothing is...  this applies to rocks' classification, botany and cancer
among all the things that can be classified... or classifying human beings
and their psyche...  ever attempt it based on pre- freudian or pre- Jungian
era's schemes?


Gurcharanji perhaps can tell us the latest ... details of the
differences... between the bryophyllum and kalanchoe....
