Hello Rohit,

Saw the "List"... :-) ...
And I think you have a done a great disservice to yourself...
you did not include your name. You are a good writer too. :-)

But the "List" made me unhappy. Are we competing here, Rohit ? :-)
Don't we have enough competition/discrimination/favoritism in this
world... already ? :-)

I am here because I want to be here. And I am not here to compete.
I like to read what you folks write... how you think... watch how
you interact... :-) ... basically to have fun.

Moreover, it is unfair to compare us... because each of us is
unique... different. So, a list is... incongruous. :-)

Now... competition is clearly a part of human nature... and it
is very important for the males. :-)
But I believe that competition almost always creates conflict,
rivalry, jealousy and resentment between members of a group.

And sometimes the "situation" can get so bad that people compete
more from a desperate or neurotic need to achieve, than enjoy
what they are doing... and that is when the -fun- is lost. :-(

In short, competition (usually) brings out the ugly side of human
nature... and we definitely do not need it in Nukkadville.

All kinds of folks reside in Nukkadville... and I think everybody
is a good writer. For me... all that matters is that I understand
the other person's point of view.

This is a free world and I cannot tell you what to do... but I
have a simple request. Please do not include me in any list. :-)

Lastly... I am here to make friends. It is no mistake that the
German root of the word friendship means "place of high safety".
And for me there can be no greater or simpler ambition than to
be a good friend ... and good friends do not compete. :-)

Thanks and have a nice day,
-Sam.
