At one point there was a list of male Indian names floating
around on this list. If someone has a copy of this list (together
with the name meanings) could you mail it to me? We are searching
for a name for our child-to-be and cannot agree on boys names.

Thanks very much!

 Hi there fella:

 Some info for ya. Lemme know what ya make of it ASAP.

 (1) Arindam Ghosh in a private call told me that he is renouncing the world
     and returning to the Himalayas - to escape the Umrikun beauts that are
     haunting his brain and ..... Bahamas is out a question boss ! :)


       And I thought the driving principle was "Karma". But that is Hinduism,
no? I would'nt know what Bahaism says about such renounciation. Or maybe 
bahamas was'nt such a good suggestion afterall.

 (2) Deb Commie was almost losing to a wimmin from the south. Gawd saved him.
     Question: will there be anymore termagantish attacks on Deb Commie ? The
     guy (Deb) is scared stiff at the thought of an amazonian broad coming and
     taking him by ..... 

 And I thought you, a Commie, were godless :) Yes, I noticed quite a few
harridans jumping on you, poor guy :) Hee hee.Don't worry, Sriram and Balaji
are out to get you before that :) I suggest you seriously consider a 
trip to the Himalayas.:)

         I guess I should let Uday Bhaskar Sarma explain the Raveena bit
and Prabhu the saru bit :) BTW, Raveena, I hear it's cold out there in
the Himalayas. How did you stay there for 2 months? Did BK hurt you bad? :)
And I saw that you have dropped that appendage to your name. Why, saru? :)
Prabhu, I guess you are very happy now. Should I release those posts? :) :)

Why didn't the World hear about them!!! How can you make sure that the
Muslims group which assume the incorrect position will not come to rule
the world? And why should not the rest of world be afraid about them?

And probably all other Muslims who dream about an "Islamic society" that

How are the Muslims going to agree upon who has the authority to correctly

 I had no idea that the construction of the second howrah bridge has been 
 completed. As far as I can remember, the construction was in a state of
 limbo for a number of years. Does anybody have more details on this 
 bridge ? 

 If the above is indeed what it seems, then along with the metro, it will
 be a welcome addition to Calcutta. In the midst of all the gloomy discussion
 on that city, this news was a welcome change. Maybe there is still some hope!!!

India Today is the most widely read magazine in India. It is published in
English, Hindi, Tamil, Malayalam and Kannada or Telugu. The non-english
editions are priced lower. The contents are slightly different. Sure, there
are some elitist articles, but then there are SOME "elitist" folks in India.
They also post a lot more non-elitist articles as well.

Unfortunately you talk about a moron,
Instead of brain cells, he has chips of silicon and boron,

Of flames and witless humor that on SCI he must present
your calling him a "cultivated bretheren" I do most deeply resent.
For nothing could be more further from the truth,
especially since his postings are so terrible uncouth.


His poetry has been known to be confined to his shower,
while posting his limericks on SCI, he has been known to cower.
In his case there is going to be no burying of the hatchet,
My mentioning that is long since water under the faucet.

I don't know how such a simple problem got out of hand.
Salman Rushdie is a Muslim. He writes something which ceases to make
him a Muslim. The punishment of apostasy according to Quaran is death.
Freedom of expression of Rushdie is threatened.

Questions:
1. At what point of time Rushdie became a Muslim? If he did not have
any choice over this matter, it's not fair to hold him responsible
for violating Quaran

2. Why does Rushdie claim to be a Muslim after he clearly violated Quaran?

3. If the punishment of apostasy of death: how can it be reconciled with
the freedom of expression in an Islamic society? After all, at any point
of time a person may think that Quaran is not true.
If the punishment is not death: why didn't Muslims unanimously condemn
the punishment?

4.What prevented Khomeini and Rushdie from settling these simple questions
over a cup of coffee?
