REWIND: Mridul Kumar - April 21, 2012

Mridul Kumar and his wife Sadhana came to visit the Bay Area last April.  Mridul and Krishnan (my husband) were college friends.  They both attended India Institute of Technology (IIT) Kanpur from 1971 thru 1976.  Then in 1976, they both went to Pennsylvania State University (Penn State) for graduate school and there, they were roommates for one year.  Mridul and Sadhana now live in Houston.

On April 21, there was a gathering for Mridul at Lam's house in San Jose.  Lam is another classmate of theirs.  Altogether, there were 18 people at the party -- 9 IIT Kanpur classmates and their wives.  I knew all of them expect for one couple whom I have met before, supposedly, but just don't remember.
