Hmm..Rediff,after correcting all English bloopers for its viewers, has now committed one! "Sunita's sad as Atlantis readies to return"...?! "Sunita's" can be used to refer to something or someone belonging to Sunita. It cannot be used in this context. It should read "Sunita is". And what is meant by "readies to return"? It should be "gets ready to return". Rediff Grammar Physician, Heal Thyself!
