[Assam] A specific question for Mahanta da and some feedback from all

[Chan Mahanta]

>But unlike Mahanta da I think others have taken 
>him seriously and hence all these statements.


*** Good question Chitta.

NO, I don't and I shall NOT, until *I* am 
satisfied about the scientificity  of the poll, 
its objectivity and its independence.

Since I have an ability to deliberate on an issue 
I do not have to follow others like sheep, 
regardless of who leads the flock.

Now I have a question for you: Would YOU?

*** That goes right over my head though. Care to explain?


>By the way Mahanta da does it do better than the Sentinel report?

*** Huh? What?

(Mahanta da-for a change please try to give a 
short >yes or no answer. I will not remind you to 
solve Mr. Challenge Brahma’s dilemma)

*** Who is  'Challenge Brahma' and what is his dilemma?

Speaking of dilemmas, would YOU care to comment 
on yours that I pointed out? I am of course 
hoping you will. You have all the freedom to make 
them short or long.  I shall not impose on your 
freedom of expression .


>By the way a question for the old assamnetters! 
>Apart from sending such denials, statements etc, 
>does the sender >bother to engage in 
>constructive debate with the members?

*** What is this all about Chitta? And what 
exactly is a 'constructive debate'? Care to give 
an example or two? I hope it is not something 
akin to that other call--to debate and not to 
argue, as if the two are somehow different?


More later.
