And oh yes, I find people who make personal attacks against a writer truly sick. I find this symptomatic of India and Indians, who do not know how to handle the responsibility that comes with freedom. Ours is the land of one of the most tolerant of religions that constantly preaches restraint and conquest of the senses, and we are amongst the most abusive.
This site is democratic enough to let people say what they want, the writer and his friends are democratic enough not to go reporting as abuse, messages that are actually abuse, and we all choose to blissfully ignore all that.
I don't think this writer would hurl personal abuses on an Internet forum against another writer whose writings he did not approve of, and that automatically makes him a much better person than all those that do here.
