Dear BK:

*** I would like to throw in a word in Rajen's defense:

The "denigration" that you refer to is not a denigration at all, but 
a characterization employed to explain the uncritical acceptance of 
the diktats of authority and authority figures and acquiescence to 
trampling of democratic principles.

As such, to devalue and discard Rajen's very well deliberated 
presentation as denigration of 'community leaders' is tantamount to 
rejecting the substance
on grounds of hurt feelings. Not something you or I could pass off as 
an 'objective' assessment.


Best regards.
