I have just started writing a biweekly series for a group which has also Non-Tamil readers. It consists of a short selection from a Tamil poem with a brief commentary. My goal is to bring the joys of Tamil poetry to non-Tamils. But many Tamils also enjoy my postings because not everyone is familiar with classical Tamil. If you think this group would be interested, I can send it to you also.

Increasingly, many works are being put in more
archivable forms. He will suggest how your contributions can be used for posterity.

Dear Dr.Raman,
Yes please. Quite Welcome. We are anxious to see what you mean. Please let us try how far we are able to enjoy along with our Non-Thamizhan friends.
I suggest that all the Thamizh wordings be written in the Thamizh script alongside its English Transliteration.
