Dear Satish, thank you for the wonderful, inspiring summary with so many forgotten souls!! In coimbatore there was a flower market named after Thiruppur Kumaran - beleive it or not lot of people thought he was a 'javuli vyabaaari', since Thiruppur is known for textiles. Such is the level of ignorance in our country.
Thiru Menatchi, your passion is admirable. But a small suggestion, try to say something positive and give it in small doses. If I address green house effect, Darfur rapes, Iraq war and the economy in one email nobody will understand. Just as an example - my father mentioned few days ago that he felt the Hindu newspaper was increasingly becoming pro China and he wanted to stop reading it. An elderly man of 75+ who had grown up on this newspaper to say that was remarkable. I read on Muthu's blog again that he felt same about the Hindu's stance on Dalai Lama protests. If I were to say anything I would say it like that - what I can do about it.Vaai valikka thittuvadhai vida very effective. Siru thuli peru vellam. Hope i have not opened a pandora box.
