Congrats, Usha di. You have done wonders for eFI since she joined. I have written a lot about her last month.

Her details are available at

https://groups.google.com/groups/profile?hl=en&enc_user=UEc8bBkAAAAFq_8sJ14MglE6V9dNAwRoFEmssiLmwyaEWxy9LPEfEQ

The rising star this month is Bhagyashri Ranade (aka Mahuri Raut), who has posted 99 messages this month though she just joined in July'11 as per details:

https://groups.google.com/groups/profile?hl=en&enc_user=QrDXpREAAADOe6ttEWk57jcrGJFtVo2KkdEasx1kiYTQavV7mdW13Q

Interactions have become more interesting from active participation of both. In fact I have been wondering about our current strong female brigade of Usha di, Bhagyashri ji, Nalini ji, Madhuri Pejaver ji & others.

Other top posters from other than moderators are Neil ji (98 messages- who is one of the pillars of eFI since long) as per details below:

https://groups.google.com/group/indiantreepix/browse_thread/thread/1a9d23b048320f1b/1da8ad8a20932904?hl=en&lnk=gst&q=Neil#1da8ad8a20932904

https://groups.google.com/groups/profile?hl=en&enc_user=9oHteRYAAACT6OdVL0e2ga9KoDm1zm0_ys9p7FBvuYqcsrUPIQKVkQ

& Alok Mahendroo ji (86 messages- who is bringing Himachal & its floral beauty closer to everybody since he joined in Feb'11) as per details below:
https://groups.google.com/groups/profile?hl=en&enc_user=X_KpKRYAAACCyQkUReCS_HO6cSE16C0lo4cocwWvDVg2RHsu8f1bCg

With their active participation, future of eFi remains bright & sunny.

Cheers to the toppers !!! It is heartening to see the posts now getting rich with substance.
The monthly family episodes are a definite booster and so are the story posts.

Besides regular posting / responding, urging happy posting members to think of posting one species per post on a subject that he / she is enthusiastic about.
For instance, my choice is discussing names of plants.

There are many interesting points about each species that can be elaborated, like:
1) a particular region's endemic species ... its distribution in the area.
2) dependent plants

a) epiphytes
b) saprophytes
c) parasitic

3) particular part of plant of particular importance ... can throw up vast number of choices

a) root
b) bark
c) leaves, and so on to go with any of following:

i) edible
II) medicinal
III) religious

4) any particular species and its numerous cultivars
5) ... ... ... etc etc

Am sure it will be a matter of great pride to see many and various signature posts which will add the spice and tang to the group.

Regards.
Dinesh

September 1st 2011...

Dear Everybody:
Gee gosh...

for a non-botanist story telling tree hugging physician this is fun stuff, labor of love...

Thanks guys, you make my day everyday with your wonderful posts ...

I agree with what Garg ji and Gurucharan ji has said above... I especially enjoy stuff from Neil and ALok, along with some new things from Balkar ji and most I have learnt about botany and identification from is Gurucharanji... thank you SIRJi (as Tanay calls you)... And Garg ji... what can I say.. I have been seeing your fotos of things Indian on wiki for a few years... someday hope to meet you in person...

Your this Usha ji (Usha N Desai) and Usha di (Dr. Usha Desai aka Ushadi Micromini) created a lot of confusion in my mind, and I passed all this confusion to Garg ji. Fortunately he knew you much better, and removed my confusion ultimately.

Congratulation Usha di,
A well deserved acclamation, I am sure you will be the part of many more
interesting conversations here... and like you said.. there is so much
we learn and see from our learned guides... into what I thought was
'greek' for me... :)

It feels nice to be a part of this group.. and although we did not cross
the 4000 mark.. but I am glad of the quality... and not mere quantity of
this forum..
Thanks to all of you who make it a beautiful experience..
Regards
ALok
