Well Prakash, It appears that we are on the opposite sides of the fence yet again. I have not met Gata personally, but from everything that I have read and heard, he is a nice, friendly young man and therefore I can only wish the best for him. His father has always been the problem (from what I have heard). It is impossible for me to attribute the "sins of the father" to the son. KarinsDad :)
