( correct me if it is wrong ) also i still feel "Mukta Udyanavana" is correct in the context that that place which was jail once was making a criminal "mukta " from all his punishments / prblems / mistakes etc it is not about allergic -- i think you are not having an open mind to discuss, we are not here to see the allergies of some one -- we are here to discuss and learn and correct oursel.f if some thing is wrong -- if you feel you are a responsible person of this list kindly correct some bodies mistakes. > Thanks, > Roopesh > > > > _______________________________________________ > network mailing list > network@lists.fosscom.in > http://lists.fosscom.in/listinfo.cgi/network-fosscom.in > >
