I know Zia from Cali. In life we all get busy and difficult at times to keep in touch. I really do not want to discuss the ALGN/OC affair, though I certainly have my views of the outcome. Zia is a smart and I hope he will keep a check and balances on ethics. I have enjoyed reading your "insignificant thoughts" and you have great potential. Your blog is like a quiet room in a library and I enjoy the visits. I wish you well in your hiatus and future endeavours. God be with you! Regards Sohaib,

We have had a few chats with Zia over lunch/dinner since the OC shutdown though. I have been doing some indie consulting over the last couple of years and am looking for something fun to do these days. How do you know OC/Zia? Sohaib.

Refreshing change. Btw, are you still close to Zia? How is life after OrthoClear? Let's say, I know a little about the history...:) Regards Sohaib,

Sohaib Athar has been the name on all my documents so I didn't really have a choice in the matter, though in retrospect, I COULD have changed it. I think Arabs spell it as Suhaib or Suhayb - I am using the later in my son's name so that he does not suffer from the Sohail/Zohaib effect :-) Your acquaintances are not exactly harassing me, and I usually tell them to Google for the "other Sohaib" :-D Add me up on GTalk if you want.

First, I believe this is our second interaction. And I must say I feel quite surreal. Having a person of the same name in the same city is quite cool, especially since ours is not a common, har-doosray-banday-wala-naam like maybe Ali Shahid or Mohammad Aslam or some unimaginative stuff like that. Second, I am quite glad to know that you are also referred to as Zohaib, Sohail or Shoaib Akhtar. I personally like the last one, as it makes me feel important and funky. Third, I have not had anyone confuse you for me and accidentally contact me. But if it happens in the future, I will direct them to you. And I apologize for my acquaintances harassing you. I guess nothing can be done about it :) Finally, something random. Most of my family spells their last name as AthEr, but for some inexplicable reason I decided to go with an A rather than an E. Why do you spell it the same way? Kindly enlighten me. Regards, The other Sohaib Athar Hello Sohaib Athar, this is the other Sohaib Athar.
