I appeal to all Rediff posters. If you do not agree with the view of the article writer fine you have have the freedom not to do so - attack the views , not the writer counter the view you have the right to dod so , but you have no right to call him stupid and so on.
I try to read in bteween the lines. I believe that that whether you are a undergraduate or a Ph. D one has to upgrade his knowldege. Do not rest on your laurels. Knowledge and concepts change. What is right today may be wrong tomorrow. learning is a continous process and one learns till his death. Even our children are our teachers

Ph.D. is not given for one's knowledge... you need to at least have knowledge of it. It is given for one's contribution in the advancement of knowledge. So it is not that it needs to be refreshed every 5 years or so. The contribution made is alreay done and it will not vanish in the next 5 years!
Lucky this is not a few hunderd years back where some one could have been hanged for such a stupidity... Words seems to be okay!
