Dear All,

Thanks to those on and off list for the contact info for Shreenand. I now have three working emails through which I can contact him. Hopefully I will be able to rustle up the manuscript that I need in this way.

Best,
BF

> Hello Ben,
>
> The email address for BORI that you gave is the old/out-dated address. Their new address is: bori@dataone.in. I was in Pune most of June 2012 and been to BORI recently. I think you can use this email address and direct your message to Bapat.
