[Reader-list] Urgent Warden Message

[anupam chakravartty]

dear pawan,

FYI, this is a form of general warning issued since 2001 after 9/11 attacks.
i think Pawan you suffer bouts of paranoia on behalf of Americans. here i am
NOT trying to defend hafiz sayeed's freedom but please stop creating an
unneccesary state of fear in the reader list.

can the moderator be slightly more responsible here?
