Dear Parvaiz,
I thank you for letting me be part of
the dialogue on the afternoon of 13th of Feb.2005.
I must also thank you introducing a
galaxy of brilliant yet free thinking minds. I must confess that
even if I had to leave early for my prearranged appointment, I found
the atmosphere and the presenations of Khalid Sohail,
Farzana Hassan & Arliene Botnick very educative.
Khalid was thoroughly true to the philosophical biography of Darwin,
and Farzana was eloquent in giving the Quaronic interpretation of
the topic; yet Arliene was superbly educational and captivating in
her manner and method of presentation.
I was deprived of
Don Joshua and
Ziauddin Ahmed's
papers under the circumstances. Please, convey my apologies to them.
I am sure there's must have been as effective as those which were
read before them.
The
kind of platform you provide for candid exchange of free minds is
wonderful gesture both in substance and style deserves appreciation.
I know there must be many more voices echoing my sentiment yet I
would like to add my voice to theirs.
Thanks
again.
See
you.
Balraj
