An introductory message that went to about 40 people from me bounced
back from a handful of people and KRR is one of them. I notice that
a few others said that their mails to KRR are bouncing. If someone
has been successful in communicating with im, would they inform him
of this group.
I just came to know about a new address (at IBM) for Ananda Kishore.
I will inform him.
Is there a general problem with AT&T people? I mean, not with the people,
but communicating with them! Mails to Yashodhar Punati, and Ravi Pattisam
both at AT&T in Allentown bounced back. Any scoop from AT&T-er Juvvadi?
I see, no make it I know, that a handful of people in this group have
difficulty with reading telugu stuff in RIT. Would someone (again, Juvvadi)
write a very short note on RIT-scheme? I did this sometime ago, but
apparently that has not been motivating enough. It is almost a parallel
to the wRITer's block syndrome.
I wrote in SCIT on and off, as occasion demanded, on chandassu. Recently
I have had requests on that matter. Is this a matter of general
interest? Otherwise I will just answer those two people off-group.
Funny, chandas is looked at as some 'sakeLLu', which suffocate
people and thought. In his preface to geeta gOvinda kAvyamu, dASarathi
quotes a SlOka from nATya SAstra, which says:
chanda heenO na Sabdanti, na chandah Sabda varjitah
meaning, there is no word that doesn't have chandas, and there is no
chandas without words! (substitute 'sound' for word)
