Re: [nukkad] Will Braham Singh please reveal the truth?

Guptaji, you are blaming me for not reading each email you send.

First, I am in the middle of a bloody snowstorm of the century and have only 
just today, Monday, managed to be able to leave home for a hotel and Internet. 
I didn't have acar charger for my blackberry so even that died Saturday.

But even so, where the hell do I come into this mess? I am supposed to issue a 
blooody retraction for something I didn't ever claim or said?

I have had the ordeal of my life past four days and reading my emails today, I 
am trying to look at all this lightly and as a joke but your emails are making 
it difficult for me to maintain my equanimity.

So, I will go off the air until I calm down.

Ref: Is it Brahams fault that someone chose to mislead u?

1-- If I was indeed misled,and through me the list, it was his duty to
issue a correction. Not performing that duty was a fault.

2--Nobody chose to mislead me. The person found something laudatory on
the internet about a list member and informed me at personal level, in
great awe and appreciation of the member. I simply communicated that
awe and appreciation to the list.
