sts/comments.htmlDear Sadh Sangat,Above is the blog by Newsweek regarding religions. Contributors from all walks of lives/religions are there except a SIKH. I emailed the producer twice. Still no action. We need sikh contributors/participants in all facets of the societies no matter where we live.I would request the Sadh Sangat to fill the producer's email box with the requests demanding a sikh contributor and lets not stop till it is taken care of. Please send this post to all Sikh forums.TejwantFollowing is my email exchange:-Dear Ms. Murphy,Unfortunately still no Sikh commentator?One wonders why this delay in the society where all religions are welcome!Hope to hear from you soon.RegardsTeji Malik>TejiMalik <
