sammukeshav, I had rather you posted in Tamil than this txt-language --- then I can have no qualms about not understanding it.

Please remember the older amongst us, and even give a thought to those of us that recognise that English can be Indian, British, American --- but please not mangled.

This is a request for a personal favour, but I can advise you that many internet forums have a rule against SMS-speak, and even those that do not, tend to discourage it. You will reach more people in plain English.

This makes understanding easier, regardless of age or mother-tongue. Imagine someone who speaks only a little English trying to make sense of what you have written. It was hard for me.

I fully understand and empathise with Nick :)

However , on going through the 5 posts of our new member sammukeshav in the rasikas forum , 3 are in perfect English , 1 is partially "mangled" and the one on this thread is fully "mangled".

Being an eternal optimist , I deduce that there is scope for change :)

I'm glad to hear that it may not be too late to save our fellow rasika from this terrible fate! :)

To this day I Understand only half what is spoken by various actors in any English Movie( With the exception of Sir Alec Guiness , Peter O Toole and Charles Laughton )

Hi all, it has been said in a website, that shri srimushnam Raja Rao had started playing the mrdangam since the tender age of 7 . he has now been playing for the last four decades. apparently he has traveled around the world many times, and is a fine vocalist, khanjira, and morsing player aswell.

cheers, Samrakshana
