DEAR MR? DR MADHAVAN: I agree with Vijayashankar.....
Since tax dollars (or Rupees) via grants pay for the research and researchers' salary... why does the public have to pay for reading what we/they already paid for.... AND I HAVE FELT THIS WAY WHEN I MYSELF WAS RECEIVING GRANTS AND DOING BASIC RESEARCH !!!! SO ITS NOT JUST FOR YOU....PLEASE dont take this completely personally... this is something to think about... CAN YOU FOLKS PUT UP YOUR PAPER'S PDF here so we can all benefit from the knowledge... by the way many faculty members in USA put up their papers as part of their curriculum vitae..... may be you can do the same... AND REGARDLESS OF WHAT YOU DO.. MY CONGRATULAIONS TO YOU BOTH >>>> VERY HAPPY FOR YOU.... DID you have to submit the descriptions originally to some botany clearing house written all in LATIN>>> WHO DID THE BOTANICAL LATIN FOR YOU?
