great post joe...
"you took the words right out of my mouth"...meatloaf.... the forum is such as joe describes suresh.. take it easy suresh.. relax... stretch you toes out in the mid- day sun... and smile... merle Howdy, Suresh, You can't tell me that you think "words" are unimportant. We already know about your valuing words very, very highly, such as the words of a Mister E. Tolle; and now Zen Master Dogen, of 13th Century Japan (whom you claim is yourself, or vice versa). Putting that aside, let me note that when you post contributions or even questions to a Public board, and not in Private email, it is common and expected to receive replies, and even challenges, from all quarters, not just from any one member. That is what an open forum invites, and what it usually provides: it gives your post and your concerns a W-I-D-E-R scope, wider audience, and wider exposure, overall. While you await your reply from specific people, other answers may continue to roll in, so you do not become impatient, or in other ways remain uninformed for too long a time; and, this at the same time enables others to contribute in timely fashion in a thread that interests or stimulates them. These other gratuitous replies in no way preclude a reply coming from the person of your choice... provided in the first place that you have prompted them or enticed them in just the right way (and if they have time to read, and make a reply. Nothing is guaranteed, of course. You must be a relaxed gambler, and, yes, it helps if you are free, and behave as if you realize that others are free, also. You claim you are free; and you object to the reply of a fellow who gives you FREE information to help assuage your prejudice(s) and ignorance in certain not-too-important, conversational matters. As my late teacher would say, "You should PROSTRATE to those people!" But, please don't. ;-) I hope you get the answers you're fishing for (or better ones). --Joe / your fanatical laughing-featherless-biped friend > "Suresh" <varamtha@...> wrote: > > > Dear Joe, > > I am surprised to receive responses from different person then whom I > addressed.
