[Reader-list] Urgent Warden Message

[Pawan Durani]

Dear Anupam ,

Thank you for pointing out that i suffer from Paranoia. It was quite a
polite way to argue.

Going forward , there would be many citizens of US who may be subscribed to
reader list and may be interested in knowing what their Govt advises them.

After 26/11 , we live in a victory syndrome of having got over the attack on
Mumbai , however I am sure US intelligence would have given their Govt much
valuable feedback as well and we must not neglect how a foreign nation
advises its citizen about travelling to our country.

Wishes

Pawan
