Since the enquiry has been made here goes my reply (my final last word (I
know I said it before - but like the proverbial penny I keep retuning -
sincerely this is it folks)

The above apllies to this post too!

I agree - I did realise that Sri S. K. Rao had thru over sight hit the
send key, my first reply was both a cheeky reply as well as a note in
congratulating him in getting the books - for sure some of the material
would soon follow its way onto the list. Also no one goes into the trouble
of getting books -which are often bulky and weigh a lot.

Ramakrishna gaaru, in my initial count I had only three of the people you
mentioned above, so now there are atleast five Ramakrishna's who read this
mailling list. The three you mention, add in Pidaparti, and yourself.
There is one more who reads these posts occasionally (when he has the time
(I forward them to him).

You have already alluded to the reason above. This forum in some sense
represents a sort of telugu Culture on the net - which SCIT doesnot
often represent. As such decorum, sensibility(sp?), etc etc dictate
certain limits. One is quiet if one cannot contribute to the beauty of the
posts here. Some of then are pretty banal I agree, but in the main they
are interesting.

That is where you are wrong - I have not been on SCIT for some time save
for the odd post when I had a dig at Tata Prasad. But he is a sport, and I
find myself in that silly position of having used his mail as a starting
point in this forum - for what had irked me more was the reply ( a
personal e-mail) I got (I will not mention the person name) who ought to
have known better than to indulge in what he did without knowing which end
of the stick he was holding.
Once again, apologies to all for this intrusion.
