Sumithra Varadharajan I am amazed by this dialogue. Only for people who have such pure affection towards PErarulAlan such a lucid conversation is possible. I am proud that I am associated in someway with people like you and also jealous and sad that I cannot be even one trillionth like this. Adiyen Sampath Kumar...
