The major difference between Dr. Kay's position and Mukul's statements
is that the former is based on huge, successful practical experience
and deep understanding, while the latter is, in Mukul's own words,
"instinctive feeling".

My own experience just confirms Dr. Kay's conclusions. Fortunately,
these can (and will) be confirmed experimentally, too.
