>>No body is hundred percent correct. I have not seen anybody in this thread not acknowledging that. << Don't I know it!! Now persuade Iqbal that when he is wrong to just acknowledge that he is wrong rather than go through this convoluted logic that the bears have been "bleeding". >>If you are 100% correct No I am not--far from it--but I am willing to acknowledge it, that is the difference

Karun- Ike for me is the best poster on SI. Ike keep it up. Ike bashing is a fashion, no other poster on any thread is attacked so regularly and vehemently, this speaks volumes for Ike's popularity. For us we know Ike, his family, his name, his job, stop this cheap campaign to discredit Ike. Thankyou Ike for your humility.

Measure of integritry: I have seen several participants in this cyberworld. I have been in this cyber world since it originated. I judge people's integrity and their work based on two basic metrics: 1) Integrity in expressing about one's self to the world. If any one fails this very basic measure then everything else is secondary. 2) One's inetellectual inetegrity should stem from personal integrity. Not otherway round. If people thing that not revealing about themself, under the pretense of privacy is nothing but lame excuse. In this cyber age anybody's history can be obtained within a few key strokes. If people think that not providing enough profile is a way of protecting privacy are living in a world of illusion. As the greatest Athma put it succintly, "one's prurity should start from within". If you can purify yourself, the greatest and the most difficult thing to do, then purifying others will be worth trying. If you cannot purify yourself why bother talking purifying about others?. the same thing goes to honest and what not. That's how I judge people. As everybody has inalienable right to express freely it is incumbent on all other listeners to have inalienable right to know at least the very basics about the preachers. That is the very basic test. If you fail then everything you say or do is insincere. -Karun
