Happy Diwali
I'd like to thank you, Vivek, for recommending "celebration of the victory of good over evil and the uplifting of spiritual darkness" ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diwali ) to us. In my country it is connected with torch of learning (kaganek oświaty in Polish). It's the same oil lamp ( http://www.rohiniart.com/diwali.jpg and http://www.bibliofilatelia.org.pl/2002/kaganek.jpg ), isn't it? Let it light here ( http://competitiveintelligence.ning.com/ ) and there ( http://fedcba.ning.com/ ).
Best,
Tad

This has been an interesting discussion. I have done some thinking about it and wonder if the differentiation between PI and CI methods is about the end result.
