After a head-reeling orbit into the heavenly patterns and the outer space the other day, it was a 'down-to-earth' Neyartha today !
ReplyDeleteCould complete the entire c/w pretty fast, in spite of a late-night wedding party.
Some nice clues: 1A, 9A, 25A, 27A etc.

Hi Richard,
ReplyDeleteHangover effects!! It's Sankalak and not Neyartha.
Sankalak is always soothing as he comes after a heavy dose of Neyartha
Oh dear ! I beg your pardon.

Hi all,
ReplyDeleteRe Shuchi's interview as suggested yesterday all of you can send in suggetsed questions and I will compile them and send it across to her. You could send them to my e-mail ID deepakgita@gmail.com please dod not put them in here
Dear Col.,
ReplyDeleteI see that you were in Coimbatore for the Engg. Degree.
I myself was in CIT 1973-78 - Chem Engg
Just curious, which college were you in & which years?
Regards/Pammechchu

Deepak,
ReplyDeleteRe questions for interviewing Shuchi.
I was thinking exactly on those lines but at the last minute checked myself that it would be impertinent on my part to make any such suggestion.
Now that you have yourself suggested that anyone may send questions to you for conducting the email interview (or are you going to call her to your home for a face-to-face interview with other faces watching?), I shall shoot some which may leave her nuts making her bolt; she may be pleased, puzzled, embarrassed or angry. You can be selective if you so wish!
@Pammechchu,
ReplyDeleteI was at PSG Tech, Mech Engg in fact first I did PTC (first year of the diploma at PSG Polytechnic 68-69) instead of PUC, then my engg from 70 to 75, took 6 years instead of the 5 as I fooled around too much and had to miss a year.
I remember BABA? from your college, he was part of the CIT ownership, and had a music group as well.
@Chaturvasi,
No face-to-face I shall e-mail them to her, whether she will bolt as you say on seeing your questions, I'll leave it to her, but I don't think that will happen as she appears to me as a person who has got a very well balanced approach to everything.
I shall definitely be selective so as to avoid any embarassment. So send in your questions.
Last date for questions is eclipse day tht's 15 Jan, a week from today
