sir...I dont know if this is the right place to ask. I think a lot of us would appreciate it if you could help us with writing sources..hich we were supposed to have done in the 1st sem from the Workbook.
Secondly, I am compiling notes of your lectures. Will send them to you soon. This is with referance to our agreement that I would compile notes of the topics covered in one lecture and send them to you and you would edit it and post it in your blog.

Vani,
1. Not sure what you meant by 'writing sources'. You may clarify it here or ask me when you spot me next time on campus!
2. Your note is awaited. You may email it to me on ajpinto42 at gmail dot com.
3. Reg the question on Ulysses, I have made a separate post on this blog on Ulysses. Can you post this question there?
