Hello Rajita,
It's good to see you posting to the list again. May I
infer from your friendship with L. Aravind that you too
are involved in the field of biology? If so, you may
well be better qualified to comment on this paper than
most here. I read the page you cited, but it takes the
form of little more than a summary of conclusions.
That, along with my lack of specialization, makes it's
difficult to know what else can me made of the study
than what they've claimed there. If you would, you
might explain some of the other interpretations that
you think are possible. Thanks.
David
P.S. By the way, I have to say that I admire the defense
of scientific principles that you mounted recently on the
IndianCivilization list.
