Anecdotes of Abi and Vetri

Saga of in-laws - Part 2 - Headway with Small Stones

AN1:-  Thank you very much for all who read, voted and commented. My replying speed is little slower as I am still learning this platform format.

AN2:-Deepthi is reacting more or less like how I reacted when I understood basics of calculus.  I have tried to make the maths explanation as simple as possible and so may not be accurate defintions.
