[LIS-Forum] English...?

[Jitender Sharma]

Dear All

Everybody has a right to express his/her feelings. But in doing so 
sometimes we reach to very personal levels and forget the purpose with 
what any discussion was started. 

In my opinion any professional discussion should only be constructive 
without accusing each other. And this is due to lack of proficiency only 
in a language that sometimes we use the words without knowing that others 
might get hurt like expressed below.

One more small request, everybody should write his/her full details with 
the message so that at least it becomes clear who is addressing to whom.
