    machchaan is used very commonly in kongku naadu. I got a letter today
addressing me a machchaan.
>> Does `malar' mean `wide' also? I think that another translation is
>>`Oh Lord! With a chest colored like a rose..'


   aandaaL uses maithunan in lots of other places.

"maithunan nambi mathusoodthan vanthennai kaiththalam paRRa kanaak kaNdEn"
I dreamt that madhusoodhan came and clasped my hands.


  There are places where aandaaL resorts to colloquial thamizh for
ethukai, mOnai business. I shall write about those if I could 
find them in my collection.

	Declaration: I am against eve teasing.

	That said, I must comment that it is quite disheartening to see
so many discussions start on some comment by someone, display the symptomps
of the beginning of a meaningful debate and end up becoming a series
of scathing vitriolic personal tirades among the valaingyars involved
thanks to their disagreement or disgust of someone else's opinions.

	Pathetic.

	Can we all get along, mundane as that sounds, and leave the
personal attacks out of these and simply illustrate our arguments for
or against something?

  It is a humanistic culture. We gave refuge to Jews
in 167 AD. The copper plates owned by Jews of malabar written
in OLD TAMIZH vattezhuttu[round characters] shows proof
of the broad minded, humanistic CHERA king. We are part of the dravidianoid indian
culture as opposed your RSSical/hitlerite/aryannical/kuramiccal lineage.
 You are foul rascal. Dont waste time in changing or
rewriting history.

     The vEdic aryans performed aswameda yaagam involving
gory ritual of pouring blood of horse on some`
areas of the queen[well documented]

                  EVE teasing is such a big menace in Madras and more
so in PTC buses and bus stands.
     
                  "well said, Radhika for correctly pointing the Madraspuli"

		A recent article in News India sighted that the fault is
on the girls who dress in an obscene manner. I would not agree nor would
most of the women. I am sure most of the women who go out of their house
for study or work would certainly have faced atlest one embarrasment by
the eve teasers.

               May be somebody among the netters know why eve teasing is
mandatory for college boys!!

       It is possible that every body wants to emulate the heroes of our
'beloved silver screen'  I hope that someday!!!! it stops.

Tail piece:
The first time I ever reported on such a thing my father advised me ignore
the guys. (which I did, of course); and told the "veera prathapas" of his
yester years.

I enjoyed reading the discussions by Nanbar Selvakumar on the
Thiruppavai posting from Aravindan Srinivasan.
Particularly the interpretation on Yanai-blindmen story and
the side-kick discussion on "aaththaa".
I believe that " aaththaa" is an origanal tamil word for
mother. It may not be derived from "akaththaal" as suggested
earlier in this discussion. To my knowledge, millions
of original tamils in the villages use "aaththaa"
commonly in their conversation and they might not have used
"akaththaal'. By the Selva's comparison of "akaththukku"
and "aaththukku" is very interesting example for this .
(please read the last sentance as "By the way, Selva's ---)
It is amazing to see this discussion developing in to a
serious discussion on mother worship and sakthi poojai.

Can any one please send me the simple ADAMI rules ?
NanRi pala!

Dear Netters,


        Can someone please e-mail me the articles that appeared sometime   
back in this newsgroup concerning actress Khushbu alias khushbhakambal.
Our site does not keep too many previous articles, therefore I could'nt retrieve
these articles. The articles were really very funny.
Thanx in advance.

Nalini Ramesh.

I apologize for posting a message that may not be appropriate for this group.

I would like to have a list of all newsgroups.  Can someone help me with a 
text file of all the newsgroups ? Please mail to durai@ortta.umn.edu

I do not have enough memory in my pc, and as a result, everytime I try to 
subscribe from the list, my computer crashes after counting upto 4000 
newsgroups.   I would like to include the groups in my startup file, so that 
I do not have to worry about selecting from the five thousand odd groups.

Where can I find a list of all the newsgroups, in a downloadable form ?

Thanks a ton.

Hi,
  I think it would be useful if we create a sort of directory having the names,
e-mail,and such information of the tamil students who read this newsgroup.
You could send your names,e-mail and any info you want to include, to me, by 
e-mail and I could collect them and post them in soc.culture.tamil.This would 
help us in getting a lot of new friends throughout the world.
We could even coin a name similar to pen friends.Any suggestions?(maybe 
net friends)
My e-mail address is cviswana@aludra.usc.edu

P.S. I am asking for tamil students only because if I ask for Indian students,
