P.S.
Just to make things clear here - there is only a very small fraction of
Indian participants (only a few) in this forum that have problems with my
posts, but they from time to time are the loud ones. Overwhelming majority
of Indian (and other) nationals here are well beyond any "post-colonial"
hangovers of yours and take my advice as it is - an honest, based on years
of experience and having only their best interest in mind.
