Mr gagan, out of curiosity, you are looking out 4 Dr Shiv of BR fame would come here n reply you?

Although I have a pony brain, but the likelyhood of this is very thin.

Dr. Shiv is my fav witty n Intellectual person who knows something of everything n eveything of something.



However, if this question was meant for other erudite person, I may try 2 respond with ur permission, cause the question has been left begging for several hours now with no takers.....



Happy 2 help na...
