I guess Sri.Alkondavalli and adiyen form a minority of two! Adiyen is nevertheles in good company! Anyway as I said in my post before, both for me and my two children, it is of no central concern if Kuresan was younger or older than Udaiyavar by a few odd years! As a casual student of history I can tell you there is still a controversy over whether Cleopatra was older than Julius Ceasar or not! Footnotes do not change history. Kuresan life's a real inspiration for me and my family, either way! dAsan, Sampathkumaran __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Talk to your friends online with Yahoo!
