       OK, firstly the question was about me being ill-informed about
       the Dvaita list and ISKCON.

       If you have no doubt about it, then why could you not face my
       arguments in our email exchanges. When you could not argue with 
       me, you simply stated "Hare Krsna". Many of my arguments remained 
       and still remain open, since you could not argue with me. But I let
       them go, and I did not pursue them. I could have easily stated that
       you are ill-informed in general and that your organization is bogus.

       Just because my Guru is not a Vaishnavite, and I don't worship
       Prabhupada and I support the Advaitists and Saivites
       does not mean I am ill-informed. FYI, back in 1985 I associated
       with ISKCONites and learnt all about them. I was asked to become
       one. I refused on the grounds of their philosophies and outlook.
       But just because I am not an ISKCONite does not mean that I
       am ill-informed.
