Nepe and Pire (Pire from your responses, it sounds like you may be a part of this club as well?), If you would be so kind as to answer these questions based on this comment in your earlier post: "Admission to the club is by invitation, recommendation and support from the existing members. Although tacit, opposition to Feb 1 coup has been accepted as the only qualification for admission" * What are the criterion that you and the rest of the members look for vis-a-via sending out invitations? (Does one need to be a published writer (Manjushree), renowned student leader (Gagan), prolific blogger (Paramendra) or can a mere Nepali concerned about the future of a Democratic Nepal be extended an invitation? * Recommendation: Again, same as above? what are the criterion for being recommended? Obvious and public opposition to Feb 1 (you said "tacit"- well how "tacit"?- does it suffice were I to say that I hate the actions of the monarchy within the confines of my home but not in public? how does one go about proving tacit opposition to the actions of Feb 1?) * If individuals outside the club have no information of the current membership then how are interested individuals who may also be "like minded" to you and and rest of the club supposed to go about securing this most coveted recommendation? I'm not faulting you for having a closed forum but when you use terms like "like minded" clearly there are others that fit the description that may be as effective (dare I say, pehaps more effective?) than current members and unless you divulge the manner in which these mere mortals may be a part of this exalted circle..you border dangerously on the cusp of "club of the privileged few"..not exactly a democratic ideal now is it? I look forward to your response.
