Anbulla Tenkasi,
1. (And this applied to Dr Collin as well). Once and for all please drop the "BUT", i.e. "but I am not good at IT". It is a drag. Please, please focus on your strengths instead of labouring upon your weaknesses. We have tons of folks who are good in IT that can do the IT part. And we have this thing called **working in teams**. Working in teams => your weakness provides ricebowl for someone else!
2. What we are short in is cognitive minds. Thinking minds. Wordsmiths. Folks who can break concepts down into simple language. Folks who can bring examples and references to explain concepts. Folks who can provide these to graphic artists to device animations and graphics. You can do that. Concepts like cooperatives, logistics, service economy, cognition, the cost of procrastination, the causes of procrastination etc.
3. Can you expect a car mechanic to think of uses for a car? Do you think he would be the one who would say to the farmer whose tomatoes are rotting, to say "Hey Farmer, why don't you bring your tomatoes to the next village on my car - they don't have tomatoes there". Or do you think a smart user of technology, be it axes or faxes, or computers or Instant Messaging, who is going to think of these ideas, identify the elements of success and the obstacles and put forth a process that constantly increases the success rate and decreases the failure rate?
4. We need smart thinkers, strategists, communicators, work-flow deconstructors, recruiters and organisers. You are one. Start by identifying your strengths and your passions - the rest is easy.

AnbuLLa Bala:
VaNakkam.
Yes, I have been interested in Tamildom. I am interested in Tamil and TamilNadu. I will contact some of the persons you have mentioned to begin with. I am not sure what I can do in practical matters, as I am not in IT. . But I know there will be something I can do.
You have a lot of people working in Chennai. I am sure you know that the name Chennai derives from Chennappa Na_yakkkar. But the latter's name is the name of our Lord, CenniyAppan. For, in Chennai, the Lord is standing/sitting with one foot on the head of the residents!
I have heard that when the former Madras province was divided, there was a huge issue about Madras (Chennai) and Glorious Thiruppathi of Shri Venkate_svara_. Pandit Nehru gave a choice to the Andhras: Choose one city, but not both. At that time, it seems Madras had a significant and opulent Telugu businessmen and professionals. This could be hearsay. The Andhras thought and thought, vascilated (Shri Prakasam) and finally opted for Thiruppathi.
Verily, the Lord is mysterious!
Anbudan, Visu

>You are one of the few who is gifted with the multidisciplinary cognition (or common sense) needed to understand the deepest layers of what Erumbugal/Tamildom is inventing. And since by definition inventions are new -- i.e. they do not have references in the real world, comprehending them is the biggest challenge.

>How about meeting up with other top Erumbugal and enabling them to understand the layers as well? And to list out the doubts that arise from them. And to thing of ways to make it understandable by lay Tamils - they don't need to understand the deepest layers. But they do need to understand why as with Gandhiji's thought revolution, this will benefit them and community. And what role they can play in evangelisation, enunciation and next-layer catalysis. Concrete examples for the next layers.

>Key people that you can phone or meet face to face to catalyse this lead level are:-

>a) Kovai Dhanapal
>b) Chennai Gandhi Kannadhasan

>And as per the rate schedule I outlined in my response to Malaysia Dr Collin - let us know your costs for recompense.
