<br>><br>> C) By the way, I think Shuddhabrata's response did express concerns<br>> regarding Abhik's unfortunate statement to Vedavati's provocative<br>> statement. You should read it again.
<br>><br>> "Let me clarify at the very beginning that I find the contents of the<br>> exchange between Vedavati and Abhit (which we have all been<br>> subjected to because of Vedavati's forward, with comment, of
<br>> Abhik's off list email to her) sad and deplorable. While Abhik's<br>> language betrays an<br>> unfortunate misogyny, Vedavati's postings and responses are not<br>> exactly exemplars of liberality and tolerance."
