Dear Netters:

The followers of Brahmanism has a very pecular method of suppressing 
their opponents.  Some examples in history are:

(1)  ...Many women were involved in the struggle, including Periyar's
     wife. Some of the Bramin men went naked in front of them to shame 
     them... 

(2)  A huge Vedic ritual was performed by the Rajah (of Travancore) to
     destroy Periyar and his following but the Rajah soon died instead. 

     (Both these are taken from the Charles Ryerson's book)

What is unfortunate is that, present generation of Brahmanism followers
are also doing the same cheap dirty tricks to suppress criticism.  One 
such incident is the cooking up of an 'e-mail threat' apparantly
send from the University of Waterloo 'surya' machine with an account
name of 'LTTE'.  These followers of Brahmanism are desparately trying
to bring in the LTTE issue in the current discussion of EVR/Brahmanism/
Sati/Varna/etc.  I tried to finger this machine and found that there 
are no accounts with the name 'LTTE'.  The system administrator of 'surya'
is on vacation.  However, I found out that 'surya' and 'watmath' are the 
only two machines on campus with 'anonymous' logon facilty.  Also,
if one notes the header of the e-mail, it has line

% Received: from wam.umd.edu by surya.waterloo.edu.bedinet (4.1/SMI-4.1)id AA29998; Wed, 19 Aug 92 12:05:15 EST

The e-mail apparently originated at the site 'wam.umd.edu' and sent
through the 'surya.waterloo.edu'.

This is a kind request to the the Brahmanism followers.  If you can 
debate in a healthy fashion in the net then do so.  Please do not resort
to cheap and dirty tricks just as some of your ancestors did.

I will let the netters decide on the truth of this e-mail.
