The First Jasmines by Rabindranath Tagore (This poem is from 'The Crescent Moon' by Tagore) AH, these jasmines, these white jasmines! I seem to remember the first day when I filled my hands with these jasmines, these white jasmines. I have loved the sunlight, the sky and the green earth; I have heard the liquid murmur of the river through the darkness of midnight; Autumn sunsets have come to me at the bend of the road in the lonely waste, like a bride raising her veil to accept her lover. Yet my memory is still sweet with the first white jasmines that I held in my hands when I was a child. Many a glad day has come in my life, and I have laughed with merrymakers on festival nights. On grey mornings of rain I have crooned many an idle song. I have worn round my neck the evening wreath of BAKULAS woven by the hand of love. Yet my heart is sweet with the memory of the first fresh jasmines that filled my hands when I was a child.

your presence on SMBR was very disruptive, in its nature; First, I didn't see that. I was having some nice discussions about tax policies, Canada, etc. I didn't see anybody stop posting there because I started, and the volume of posts actually seemed higher while I was participating, indicating increased interest. What is your rationale for that? It's not something Laz mentioned at all in his decision to break our agreement. Second, my posting style was well know when the agreement was made, and as far as SMBR goes, it didn't change. So if it was disruptive, that was based on things Laz knew before he made the agreement. If he made a miscalculation as to the impact of my participation, that's not my fault.

As to the question of whether or not he was right to ban you, I do not think that the excuse of the contretemps with E is sufficient, Well, we're in agreement there!
