Paalana gaaru, four to four and a half years ago there was a thread exactly
on this topic. Let me see, if I could dig out my archives. I vividly remember
two postings from that thread; one providing a long list of Telugu
personalities (prakaaSam, paTTaabhi, alloori, a stamp released on the eve of
prapancha telugu mahaa sabhalu-1975, one on pOtana's 500th b. cent, etc.
etc.) on stamps, and the 2nd: a followup by SUBS (seetamraaju, where is he?),
asking (rather joking!) if jiDDu kRshNamoorti 'd be counted as a Telugu
(and went on to add that JK couldn't even count up to 5; okaTi, renDu, mooDu
in Telugu :)).
BTW, does anyone know about WETD (predecessor to SCIT) archives at
Nodak.edu? As long as WETD was functional; i.e. till early 1995 all the
digests (starting from 1991, when great KT was the editor!) were archived,
and could be easily downloaded. When I looked for them 6 months ago, they
were no more there.
