          Natarajan of AT&T has a unique Gift for making fun and
          let us leave the hilarious for the best. I immensely enjoy
          ejoy his humorous spin !

          What I've been trying to say in the many posts genuine
          attempts to share my understanding and was hoping this
          would offer a different perspective. It is not an attempt
          to paint 'our language is a baap of your language' for
          any cheap thrills. I believe there had been much misunderstanding,
          and less wholesome perception on linguistic and cultural
          heritage of India and I am genuinely attempting to try
          communicating learning and contributing in the process.

          At times i am forced to make some highly critical comments
          ( using strong but in my mind considered descriptions as
           facism, racism, linguistic terrorism, counter terrorism,
           casteism, revisionism). These are required because i am
           aware of geniunely good fellows unfortunately following
           'hindu fundementalist' approach under the guise of being
            `patriotic' and NOT looking at the TRUTH ! Some of those
          organizations supporting this hindu fundementalism have been
          and continue to do truly outstanding nation building activities
          and I deeply respect them, but there are some seriously dangerous
          racist and facist undercurrents i am aware of and this is what
         i am opposing genuinely with as much evidence and support as i can
         bring to bear. I believe Sanskrit and Vedas as foundational heritage
         and culture of india is a SERIOUS distortion of facts. These are
         undoubtedly glorious gems and add pride to our heritage but these
         are some of many. The history of tamil and sanskrit is an extremely
         intereting one. These two languages have influenced each other.
         But whenever i say that something in sanskrit is derived from
         tamil i get empty crticism without any substance ( yours is
         an example). Did you examine the 40 plus indo-european language
         alphabets ? Did you examine and CONSIDER what i said ?
         Did you offer any counter point ? One fellow call that I am
         a fanatic (-; and now you write a satire without a substance
         and not very humorous either ( we have standards, you know !
         our present standard is Natarajan (-: anything that does not
         measure upto 10% in Natarajan units it will be dumped !)
