Sir! You must be a supreme wizard! In contract bridge (a game played with cards) it is usual for one team to sacrifice and try to come up with better than a par score. But sometimes the sacrifice turns out to be phantom in the sense that the opponents do not have a good hand and the contract would have failed in normal play. The upshot of all these is that when the opponents double a sacrifice contract they lose a bundle of points for the under-tricks. Once when a team went down and conceded a bundle of points (the scoring is somewhat complicated to be described to a lay person) he asked his partner how many points they have lost in that particular hand. His partner came out with the reply of 2300 in no time. The questioner was impressed with the speed of answer and said that he must be a mathematical whiz kid to come out with such a quick answer. His partner replied with a dead pan face "No... Just practice"... |

Inability to express one's views may be one thing. But if people want to read above, blow and between the lines and NOT the lines themselves... what can we do?
Opinions are just opinions. The writer of the post himself or herself would get a second opinion on reading one's own again. The crux of the matter is nobody has ever been able to express what he/she wanted to express. |

They are called the silent majority (sleeping majority ???)
Others may just want to avoid verbal confrontations. There are more than these two reasons for the silent majority for standing at the threshold level. You will find a lot many people not even being ruffled into responding to what some others would be considering as a hot thread or provocative message. They are mostly pattern readers being at the thresh-hold level more than once in the past. |

Yes! practice makes it perfect...
the good, the bad and the ugly too! You seem to be very enthusiastic in usage of superlatives in this thread. Let me slightly dampen your enthusiasm with the help of the following anecdote. |

Dear Tmt VR
"Nattu Vaidhyar" - [Country Doctor !] - sounds a bit crude, would prefer "Practitioner of Native Medicene" - but "Ladies of the Home" were all that way - they always knew [ instinctively or taught ] how to make those delicate adjustments in their recipes to keep the family healthy. If men-folk couldn't notice, it just means that they were insensitive or incapable of appreciating these niceties. vgane - Maya Machindra, [Vikramadityan's brother] because of being termed : "Supreme Wizard" "Yay Yem" - the phonetics or origin immaterial - either way it is "Apaana Vaayu" Now, Nattu Vaidhyar again: - Feeling dizzy? Nausea also ? - CONGRATS ! - raw mango [Pachai Mangai] could give symptomatic relief - this is the mango season. Guruvethunai Yay Yem |

Should we look forward for a summary and analysis of the findings? Let me try to respond to your quest, with due apology to Shri Govida, to whom your question is directed. I think, with all the posts shared here by some members, in line with the thread tittle and OP, the answer for your above question is present before all of us, for each of us. This thread and the opening post serves a purpose to all of us and each of us must have formed our own summary and analysis, about how members react to the posts, posted here. |

Truly we need to accept people as they are - if we want to live in peace! That would be selfishness. We need to correct people soon, if we see them making wrong choices in life, else it will blow out of proportions. [as we see the world now]. We should accept people, only based on their situations - physical conditions, bitter experiences, lack of support. If they are living in normal conditions, then we have to step in and make reasonable arguments/suggestions and bring them into the right mind/choice. |
