[Reader-list] one more Kashmiri Pundit email

[Rahul Asthana]

Kirdar Sahib,
You say-
"By banging your head again and again on
the computer you are hurting yourself and us. "
Who is "us" here? Can you please delineate what differentiates between "yourself" and "us"? Do "us" have certain qualities that "yourself" don't and vice versa?

Thanks
