Interesting tactic by postor "Bodhi" and interesting response. <!--emo&:roll--><img src='style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/ROTFL.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='ROTFL.gif' /><!--endemo-->
Dear "Bodhi":
So now you point out that in the Sethu area (sector AB) the drilling encountered HARD ROCK at a shallow depth.
Not rubble. Not fossilized trees. Not pebbles delivered by squirrels. And not just boulders tossed in by my very muscular namesake and his cohorts. HARD ROCK.
HARD ROCK is a "natural formation", not a "man-made formation". There is no mention in the Ramayana of the Sethu being fused into one solid 100-yojana-long, 20-yojana-wide (by the way, what is the official length of a Yojana in ancient engineering terms, pls?)
shaft of solid rock. By what the Ramayana says, the Sethu was built by dumping everything that the army and locals could carry, into the sea.
So now you obviously have a problem, Bodhi. In order to maintain that the Sethu is man-made, or vanara-made, you have to maintain that the regions where you object to drilling are those where there is loose rocks, fossils, etc., and NOT HARD ROCK.
Evidently, erosion by currents, waves, cyclones and tsunamis has washed those off in the precise location of the proposed dredging, BUT HAVE NOT WASHED THEM OFF in the places where the Political Propaganda is demanding that dredging should be done. So that leaves you solidly supporting destruction of the ACTUAL REMAINS of the Sethu.
Clearly, the TN Minister and ManMohan Singh and Sonia are better friends and protectors of Hindu treasures and traditions, than you and your campaign buddies are.
Q.E. D.
As I said above, this is what comes to all propagandists. Very sorry to see you reduced to this state. Tragic.
