During the November, 2003 - January, 2004 timeframe, I also participated in some of the campaigns initiated by Kashmir and others on this Forum but did not post my contributions here as they were sporadic... I am guilty of not participating in all the initiatives undertaken and can only offer a lame excuse of being preoccupied by work and other obligations.
A very sincere, heartfelt Thank You to PeeCee, SillyMan, Kashmir, Rajeev Khanna and several others on this forum for all the advice provided and initiatives undertaken by them...
