Edie,

       I found your short and powerful posting so educative,full of inspiration and it equally showed an attractive 'branch' if literature!

These are the ideas that the Chinese and the Indians like Ghandi had in their minds.Despite the ramblings within this forum,now and again when times allows me i do brows through some of those articles which come from independent-minded writers.

I couldn't stay mute as far as your article was concerned i really liked it!

Yeropulloh!
