I apologize.

I would not be so presumptuous as to try to represent anybody else,
therefore, I will limit to my views only, as you ask me to do. My formula
for a compromise would be,
1. Let us heed to popular opinion on keeping Ajayji as the sole moderator
for the present. In the least, this one thing will bring us back together.
2. It appears that you have reservations about the present charter of
the SRH. Let us discuss what you would like to suggest as improvements
and also discuss how the suggestions could be implemented.

I meant by the people who presented the evidences that the conspiracy
existed. Sorry for my bad english.

I accept your word, but I can not speak for anybody else.

This calls for a careful study. I have not done that yet, thinking that
unless the charter is extremely restrictive, it should be possible to
express every kind of opinion. If not, there are other newsgroups,
including the soc.culture.indian. For example, I was not sure if a
discussion on the challenges of coexistence for Hindus among themselves and
with others would be proper in SRH, so I sent a personal mail to the
present moderator, and got his OK. I will be starting a thread on this soon.
I think that Rajiv Varmaji also uses a similar approach, as I read him
say that unless he does not feel it to be appropriate, he does not send
any article to the SRH.
With best regards,
Dhruba.
