Wow!
	This is a real shocker! What do you mean by "this kind of stuff
is bullshit"?! I would point out that your statement above implies that
the information in the R.Krishnan article is irrelevant to Kerala. I
think that Rajesh is doing us all some benefit by extracting that article
from the soc.culture.indian group and posting it here on ACK.
	Your statement ignores the information in the Krishnan posting
itself. First of all note that he talks about the relevances of comparing
the present-day Kashmir and Khalistan issues to the problems of KERALA!
There is great relevance in his posting. Kerala IS an important and
essential part of the Indian nation and thus what affects India will affect
Kerala and vice versa.
	You also cannot forget that events in all areas near AND far from
Kerala will have repercussions for that particular state;other neighboring
countries, other Asian countries, countries in Europe,North America,South
America,Africa,etc. all affect the state of Kerala. This is understandable
when everybody realizes that Kerala and India are never separate entities
in relation to the rest of the world. It is basically a system of "the world
affects us and we affect the world". A policy of isolationism has never
worked beneficially for any area of the world. A policy of isolationism is
something like a person trying to live his entire life from birth to death
without ever seeing any other person! Can you imagine the loneliness,
helplessness and pains such a person would suffer? It is the same for a
community,state,country or society.
	And anyhow if I am correct in understanding your implied statement,
then your final statement is of absolutely no relevance to Kerala or even
to India. I don't see your thinking behind the poorly written/IRRELEVANT
calculation of : IRRELEVANT POSTING = ACK USER IS MENTAL PATIENT. If you want
to flame somebody for their statements, go ahead but : DON'T POST IT, USE
E-MAIL! And, anyhow you are flaming poor Raj for a posting he made but which
he didn't write himself. He posted something written by another person
named Indu. Why don't you try sending e-mail flaming her or better yet
flame the publishers,writers,editors,etc. who wrote those published
articles? See how far that would will get you! Now, I will stop because I
have begun to become irrelevant in the last paragraph or so.
