I have been overwhelmed by the volume of this newsgroup and hence, cannot read all articles. If you (or any of your fellow ultra - Dravidaas) have posted any counter insults, please re-post them. Incidentally, where is your fire ? Have you been de-fanged ? Anyhow, so as to put the "culture" back in soc.culture.tamil, heres a little ditty in your honour : There he is - the Kathirist, Champion of the downtrodden. I went to his upanayanam. He longs to be a Brahmin. The Kathirist is a Vedic Scholar - This one may not refute. A brilliant Vedic mind has he - A man of great repute. The Kathirist moonlights in our temple, I see him every night. Reciting Vedas and Slokas and such, As any Brahmin might. The Kathirist would like very much To undercut his competition. Its captialism at its very best. Do you understand the situation ? Do let him in the action, Brahmanas in every temple. If you dont give him his share, The Kathirist will grumble.
