Anbulla Indy Ram,

Which is heaps better and by what quantum? A thanga vaathu, a golden goose (a
goose that lays golden eggs) or a thanga muttai,golden egg?

Re: below - please take that extra little step to make this thanga muttai into
a thanga vaathu by:-

1) writing to Ramachandra and having him to revise his document, Tamil
Computing Bible Draft (aka Tamil in Microsoft Applications) at
<<http://www.tamil.net/special>www.tamil.net/special>.

2) helping him upload once he has revised it.

Reason: People who from then on download the document will not:-

a) face problems using it
b) throw their hands up in the air and give up,  if it doesn't work
c) write emails to Thamil Innaiyam asking why it doesn't work
d) then await a reply from a kind soul in Thamil Innaiyam
e) and if they have not gotten onto Thamil Innaiyam  because of and
unfavourable outcome from (b), (c) or (d) we would have lost another member
who
could have referred and converted many more members, some of whom would be
golden gooses (know how multi-level marketing recruitment works? Know how
then-paaluti Hotmail Bhatia became a mega-millionaire? Clue: Viral marketing)

AND 

We don't have to do this labour and anxiety repeated again and again.

Paalutigal, mammals think machines. Paalutigal create golden gooses. This is
how we overtake thunuchaaraigal which will repeat again and again from ivory
towers, that they are working very hard, not knowing what they don't know -
that the quantum of results is what they will be judged by. Paalutigal use
their minds, their communication skills and their detachedness from pain and
pleasure in aggregating golden gooses that do millions of times what
egocentric, risk averse, self-patting thunuchaaraigal do - stand in the way of
paalutigal. You are a paaluti prima donna - go ahead, carpe diem (seize the
day) and make golden gooses instead of golden eggs. !:-)

p.s. one of these days we have to mind-collide with Chandra, Thathuvarayan and
Dr Jayabarathi on how truth is layered. How there is a meta-layer to
everything
and meta-meta-layers to meta-layers. When we have more Thamil paalutigal to
put
it to practise Tamildom will be unstoppable. I bet Meykandar or our azvaargal
must have covered the layering/Babushka dolls/thaamarai petal layers/onion
layers of truth.
