Ms Shika jain has been a regular member of these Net Groups and I have found some very useful inputs and inititiations from her. I MAY NOT KNOW HER PERSONALLY BUT I HAVE SEEN GOOD SENSE IN MANY OF HER POSTINGS. Now, I am surprised to find the postings of Mr Ramchandran Nair who seems to have a special dislike for Ms jain. Mr Nair should relax and allow members to share their experiences. After all, most of the observations of Ms Jain were very informative. Relax Mr Nair....!!.. more
