       Somina 
        Sharma : Being 
        a synonym of 'Enthusiasm', no wonder he is one of the most popular guy 
        in our community. Nicknamed as Ranatunga by Basav, he is a versatile personality 
        and is blessed with a great ability of speaking about anything, any time. 
        This 'born-singer' has mesmerized the crowd 
        with his songs in Picnic'2000 and Diwali'2000. Our community simply cannot 
        forget his contributions during this Picnic'2000, though he was not a 
        member of org committee. He was awarded with the 'Best 
        Umpire of Tournaments'2000'. 
      The skit " PICNIC'2000", the 
        brain child of this drama-master could not materialize due to lack of 
        acters and time. Nevertheless, the hidden ACTOR within him came to light 
        during the super hit skit "East or West". He never sings without a mike 
        in his hand and gave a shock to the audience by his magic of converting 
        a paper into mike in no time. It's because of his relentless efforts, 
        that we had the golden opportunity of enjoying the outside talents like 
        Shaker Das.  
      Guys, Be careful, before 
        giving your car to him, even by chance!. There are as many interesting 
        stories about his car, as are with this glamorous guy. Once, he went out 
        with his car and came back home in a taxi, by selling his car in less 
        than 30 minutes, for $1700. We wish this IITian a great time in India, 
        with his wife.(by Basav)  
  
        NRA Prasad: He is the 
        man who expanded GADP team in three folds, firstly in numbers from 2 to 
        18 guys, secondly in variety of projects from its routine GADP work to 
        Generator Website and eDRB (today's hotcake E-Matrix), and thirdly, from 
        onsite team to offshore team. He is very calm, cool and composed in his 
        behaviour, but extremely aggressive at his work.  
         
        NRA (popularly called) is a role model as a PL and has versatile technical 
        skill sets in s/w 's like Fortran, Sybase, C, UNIX or even the hot fields 
        like JSP, Servlet Programming. Team members are really fortunate to work 
        with him, as he goes down to the deepest technical problem and helps them 
        to solve them.  
         
        "Prasad puts his hand on everything. He works 7 
        days a week, along with his terrific team"--- these comments made 
        by Mike Tomsho to Tom Wagner, GM, Generator Tech Dept, summarize everything 
        about NRA. Even after going to India, NRA is going to have sleepless nights 
        with unofficial telecoms with Mike Tomsho and his E-matrix team here. 
        He is a very good sportsman. He has won many awards/prizes in TT, Carrom 
        and Volleyball. The match between Aashish & NRA is rated as one of the 
        best matches of the Carrom Tournaments'2000.  
         
        His wife Dr. Vasumathi Prasad took care of 
        the social-health of our community apart from taking care the health of 
        NRA and her kids Niranjani and Nivedita. She is very dynamic, talented, 
        and obviously was, our first choice for the 'Chief-Editor' 
        post of 'Ladies-Corner' of our website. She is the lady behind 
        the Fancy Dress competition in this Diwali'2000. She displayed exemplary 
        character, when she volunterily took the responsibility of preparing the 
        poories, which were supposed to be prepared by bachelors. 
         
        Niranjani (4th grade) is like an elder sister to all kids, and always 
        motivated all kids to take part in cultural events and sports. Nivedita 
        ( pre-school) is laconic, like her dad and played SHAKTHI role in Fancy 
        dress. Nivedita is nicknamed as 'Bunny-Rabbit', 
        whereas Niranjani is nicknamed as 'Princess' by 
        Ivette. We wish this family a great time in India. (by
