  1. Deepak,
    I once again appreciate your efforts in adding links to answers or references in the clues.
    This way the usefulness of this blog is enhanced manifold.
    Of course, even in the Orkut community members have occasionally given such links but yours in the only blog that gives them avowedly, wherever needed.
    Please accept my congrats.
