Hi all i had a chance to attend the opening function of a library in St.Mary's School in devakottai, sivaganga district on saturday. The management had chosen to invite leading writer S.Ramakrishnan( thunai ezhuthu- ananda vikadan fame) to open the library. such a refreshing change from having politicians open all buildings. i had the privlege of talking to Mr. Ramakrishnan for quite some time. was floored by the level of critical thinking he has. incidentally he has himself researched on chola history for some time.I told him about the group and have requestede him to meet our members in chennai one of these days. members in chennai can give suggestions on how we can go about this. venketesh
