Hi, Badru et al,<div><br></div><div>As said earlier, anyone can be anyone if they wish - what is the problem here? Do you have to know everybody - if that is not gossiping?</div><div><br></div><div>What exactly is this witch hunting got to do with issue at hand? If there is an issue of identity, please do that privately for your benefit if at all.</div>
<div><br></div><div>It seems that there is nothing else to do but this high class gossip? </div><div><br></div><div>Of course no one can stop anybody from sharing their opinions - what one can do is to disregard unwanted information since this List is now littered by every sort of things - some are important some are not.</div>
<div><br></div><div>Btw do you pay for your connectivity or someone is paying for the time spent composing and sending such a gossip? let us try to spend resources meaningfully please.... </div><div><br></div><div>Cheers</div>
