Dear K of ARKP,
there you go again dear, mixing up meanings and metaphors. Jeebesh is
treferring to rules and you need rules to engage - with others, with lists
and even to play games with. You talk of boundaries - accidentally
cartogrpahed, legally upheld, protected with the might of the mighty miitary
and even mightier motorolla (or was it Airtel?). They are not quite the same
thing at all you see.

The problem my dear is, if you use words without quite understanding
meaning, the pictures you draw can become empty and meaning-less. Or at best
quite smelly indeed. Like when you asked us to visualise Shuddha sleeping
with wind (Pawan).
