Um, let's not unwittingly automatically raise the level of the departed to
sainthood... the fact that they voluntarily departed should scream volumes
about the profundity of their worthwhileness... once one traverses the mootness
of his voluminous verbiage one discovers that Shankar essentially epitimizes a
*kvetch*... better than 90% of his posts focused primarily on
complaining/criticising/kvetching on most everyone else... the one thing he
never learned about food science was to keep his eyes on his own plate, albiet
venerably empty.
