I am a handicraft designer working with rural producer groups and GRRC is one of my favourite organizations. Brother Shanti and Kumar are such inspiring individuals that my visits to Alampoondi leave me recharged. I am me very happy to see the lovely pictures and read your impressions and hear other friends of GRRC.

Thanks for the information that they have a website now.

Just returned from the inagural rituals of the new Shiva temple At Alampoondi(native place of my grand father,late Sampoorna sastriar).
Must admit that the place has a mesmerising effect on me, since this is my very first vist to the village.

It goes without saying that I enjoyed myself throughly when I was there.Look forward to taking my children and wife along the next time around.

Natarajan:

I have written more than 300 essays on this blog and offered god-knows-how-many replies to those leaving comments. I’d say you have details a-plenty about me available at the click of a mouse.

Best,

At its most fun, memestream is a dialogue -- or, better, a cacophony -- rather than a library of overwrought essays reflecting a single point of view. For that, we need your two cents!

If you read anything on memestream that provokes an interesting thought, an emotion, a laugh, violent disagreement, passionate agreement, an anecdote, an uncontrollable non sequitur... be sure to leave a comment.

It will be no surprise to anyone who follows this blog that "all the best stuff" resides in the readers' comments. So don't stop reading when you hit the end of the essays. And add you voice to the discussion!
