Thanks Thaths for the efforts & info!

Take a deep breath. Count to ten.... There. > Oh, you mean I am angry with Sudhir Daithankar ? Heck, no ! Actually, Sudhir has declared me as his pal, buddy and promissed me to "long way to go, buddy" , sometime back. Secondly, he has helped me many-a-times previously , in my 2-years journey on LIH. And thirdly, I have high regards for him for his intelligence. So even if he try to sing " Radha naa bole, naa bole, naa bole re..." , I would say "Bol Radha bol , sangam hoga ke nahin...". I am just searching some descent caffee' on Laxmi road, Deccan etc to accompany him for a good Nashta/Coffee. :) Thaths, you also ignored my sporting wink ;-) at the end of the sentence. PS: Actually I am sorry, that my thread started kinda flame war here. "S"omeone on this list already know that, due to freqent flame wars I was away from this list for a long time, some 6 months back, when we had met on sendmail mailing list. I also did'nt like the idea that fellows like Atul leaving this list due to some hot flame war , long back. Such flames should be immidiately estinguished before becomming "Towering Infernos". Instead of concentrating on hot words and flames, better to grasp as much knowledge and expertise as possible from all the experts. And as someone said "Lalloos in every field make life somewhat colourful" ! Not directed to any-body ! Thanks to Raju for quick intervention to prevent a possible flame war here.
