Dr. Pankaj Kumar, If you make fun and laugh at those having a genuine discussion on a few characteristics of a family, you will soon become a laughing stock yourself. You seem to have a remarkable knack for not reading properly, distorting a person's remark and making fun of the same. It is almost criminal on your part because it is misguiding and deliberately twisting and putting words into a person's mail which was not there at all in the first place. Read my two characteristics of LIliaceae mail properly. I have said two of the main characteristics, there are many more charactersitics to make a family. Similarly when you are questioning that should Ochidaceae also be in LIliaceae beacause of sharing these two characteristics, the question is shocking, since there are definately many more unique characteristics besides the ones shared by some families to make it a unique family. You are all the time in attack mode of discussion, it is having a negative influence on some others also who have started talking your language. If you can ban individuals who were praising your mails I am wondering why I should I not ask for more refrain from you or altogether ask you not to interact in my posts to maintian my peace of mind and cordial atmosphere in the group. Also I find that to my quuestion you are addressing as 'some people', why? Why can't you address me and respond instead of putting others in embarrasing situation, in this case Dinesh ji? What kind of communication method are you following? The Sheen is taken away from your knowledge and expertise by your overbearing and almost dictatorial approach. Umpteen number of times you have apologised to the group and said you will not repeat again, only to forget the same promise in a few days time. Can you please allow indivduals like me to discuss without fear and taunts on the group. regards, Rashida.

Incorrect identity is not a big deal many top taxonomists in the world go wrong at times and some at many times, but forcing incorrect identity on others is not correct. As I said before, just for example, Dracaena fragrans has so many synonyms and one more interesting thing is, this taxa has been placed in 7 different genera by different authors, e.g., Dracaena fragrans (L.) Ker Gawl, Aletris fragrans L., Aloe fragrantissima Jacq., Pleomele fragrans (L.) Salisb., Sansevieria fragrans (L.) Jacq., Cordyline fragrans (L.) Planch. and Draco fragrans (L.) Kuntze. but that doesnt mean that Linne, Jacquemont, Salisbury, Planchon, Kuntze were fools and Ker Gawl was the most intelligent one. Just that people have their own views which were not being followed by others. If this would have been the case then Linne would have been most infamous guy and so would have been Van Rheede and earlier workers.

[efloraofindia:62913] Re: Sterculia villosa
It is not necessary that all botanists can id plants. Please remember that all our pioneer references on plant taxonomy in India or elsewhere have been done by non-botanists/biologists. We do refer taxa identified and described by doctors or army men. I am a trained taxonomist. But I made mistakes several times. I do agree and admit those mistakes when someone pointed out or I myself happened to notice the same. I think Snehal was in a hurry to post the mail and made the statement without thinking much. Let us join hands to share, learn and understand about plants around us more importantly to conserve and protect them in its natural habitat. let us join hands to fight against the facts that destroy the natural resources that are meant for the next generation/s too. I completely agree with Vijashankar and Smitha. It is the passion that takes you ahead. Hence keep going ahead with the passion (interest comes along).

Yes it is the Octopus orchid. One of the more common orchids available in garden centres in Europe. About bad care of plants sold in supermarkets or even garden shops - it is quite common all over. Plants are nowadays a thing you buy to match your interior design set up rather than a intersting plant you want to grow. And when it stops flowering it is most often thrown away.

It is almost criminal on your part because it is misguiding and deliberately twisting and putting words into a person's mail which was not there at all in the first place. Read my two characteristics of LIliaceae mail properly. I have said two of the main characteristics, there are many more charactersitics to make a family.

Re: [efloraofindia:62966] Re: Sterculia villosa
Dr. Gurcharan ji, I would like to make certain observations here: Smita jis' second post is completely uncalled for. There are not so many mails against Snehal. Infact none. Only Giby ji has written perfectly sound mail in general to the group expressing his views. Smita ji has no right to be angry about that . Smita ji's symphaties can be understood, after all just a while back she had suddenly come on the group and said 'no guesses please' I have met Smita ji only at Sawantwadi and am aware of her proneness to such emotional outbursts. Why the thread had not closed when Dr. Pankaj asked is because of the timing he decided to close and the words he used- just when I was having a perfectly cordial converstion with Rajdeo ji he came on and said the thread should be closed . My questions of why he than influenced Rajdeo ji to not resppond are still not answered on itpmods and also other questions of words he used in the other thread. The lady in question Snehal ji has not apologised to me yet. She has joined the group only in November 2010 as per the records. How a new person with hardly any contribution to the group caan have the courage to write such mails is to be examined. Did someone instigate her? Yes please close the thread now, but my questions have to be answered and the apology has to come. regards, Rashida.

[efloraofindia:62987] Leaving the group-Thanks for the wonderful learning experience.
Dear members of eflorofindia, Today, a while back I have received a mail from Garg ji saying that in the best interest for mainting harmony on the group I withdraw from being a moderator of the group. I thought for a while as to what triggered this. Yesterday, I recieved a mail from Dr. Gurcharan ji asking me not to respond to Dr. Pankaj Kumar's mails till matters are sorted out. I was awaiting some kind of resolution of the matter. Now it has become very clear to be that the agenda of Dr.Pankaj Kumar to attack me constantly and ultimately get me out as a moderator seems to be working, If this is the perception and action of the owner of this group ids asstated than I think I should no longer continue with the group at all. I joined the group on the invitation of Garg ji on 31st December 2008. I joined as a moderator on the invitation and approval of majority moderators on 8 May 2010. I was looking forward and infact working on the family Euphorbiaceae that I had volunteered to coordinate next month. That will no longer happen from my end. I wish to thanks all the members and experts for the enriching inputs and exhange of taxonomy information so generously all the time. All the very best for the group. Goodbye. regards, Rashida.

Re: [efloraofindia:62995] Leaving the group-Thanks for the wonderful learning experience.
Rashida ji, Please rethink on your decision. Very few active members are here. You are one of them. Few years back some Kala wrote to me that whatever I have written while documenting Traditional knowledge is available in Delhi bus stand. He was asking for documents related to Chhattisgarh biodiversity for his research report. At first moment I felt very bad. But it is occupational hazard. I replied to him Please go to Delhi bus stand you will get the documents. It is part of life. So, just ignore it. I humbly request you to think again on your decision. Everyone from this group is valuable for everyone. regards Pankaj Oudhia On Thu, Feb 17, 2011 at 12:21 PM, Rashida Atthar atthar.rash...@gmail.comwrote: Dear members of eflorofindia, Today, a while back I have received a mail from Garg ji saying that in the best interest for mainting harmony on the group I withdraw from being a moderator of the group.
