  Corrections:
  About repetitions, one chatter asked ARR if telephone mani pol had bits of "Ace of Base" and ARR said it had similar strains but he will see to that such similarities are not present in his future projects. (this statement is not exact but I have tried to recollect, anyone who has the transcript please produce the same)

  Sridhar Seetharaman-
  I value his opinion too though IMO Stravinsky's layered music is too complex to be incorporated into an indian song plus its harmonically dissonant in a way that may be abhorrent to indian listeners.However i guess it could be taken up as a challenge.

  VaNakkam NOV sir,

  Even I was confused. I didnt see the discussion on this topic recently.
  
  Yesterday I was reading rediff. I thought this chat was recently, so I started this thread.
  
  But later when Ravi revived this thread I went back and checked the dates..

  this might be a little outdated since I am posting in reply to Muthu's post (which was in 98 :) ) ..I just went through rahman's chat transcripts and if anyone has enthu to read muthu's posting here ..u will be surprised .. he put something say X as a reply his question say Y ...
  while the original trascript gives this answer X to some other question Z ...
  now the interesting thing is, Z asks about rahman's opinion about prasanna where in he off-handedly remarks about MSV and IR ..and ends up saying Prasanna **NOT** IR is a genius .. (please note no comment about IR)
  now apna man Muthu has written in his posting the question X as "waht do u think of IR" ..
  was this deliberate and did he misunderstand ARR's answer ..
  it wud be interesting to know .. :)))
  
  thnx ..

  Ada paavi is a bad word according to Prabhu the Moron whos good words are what normal people consider as vulgar words.

  THIS CAN REALLY MAKE YOU EASY MONEY! BUT YOU HAVE TO TRY A LITTLE FOR IT TO WORK!
  This is your ladder to success, happiness and luxury. Now you can get anything that you had dreamt of getting. Get yourself involved and reap the rewards on becoming a millionaire. A few weeks back, I was browsing through newsgroup, just like you are now and came across an article similar to this that said, you could make Lakhs of Rupees within weeks with only an initial investment of Rs.60! So I thought, "OK, right, this must be a scam", but like most of us, I was curious, so I kept reading. Anyway, it said that you send Rs.10 to the Main Database Address stated below and to each of the other 5 sub addresses stated in the article. You then delete the name and address in the #1 and move the other four addresses up, that is 5 becomes 4, 4 becomes 3, 3 becomes 2, 2 becomes 1. Now #5 will be blank. Place your own name and address in the bottom of the list at #5, and post the article in at least 200 newsgroup. (There are about a million) No doubt, that was it. So after thinking it over, I thought about trying it. I figured what have I got to lose is just 6 stamps and Rs.60, right? Then I invested the measly Rs.60. Well GUESS WHAT HAPPENED!. Within 7 days, I started getting money in the mail! I was shocked! I figured it would end soon, but the money just kept coming in. In my first week, I made about Rs.250 which is four times the money I invested. By the end second week I had made a total over Rs.4,000 In the third week I had over Rs.36,000.00 and it's still growing. This is now my fourth week and I have made a total of just over 2,12,000.00 and it's still coming in rapidly. Its Certainly worth Rs.60, and 6 stamps, I have spent more than that on the lottery, but I \ never got anything back. Let me tell you how this works and most importantly, why it works. Here is a Step by step instruction of what you have to do.
  STEP 1: Get 6 separate pieces of paper and write the following on each piece of paper "PLEASE PUT ME ON YOUR MAILING LIST." and then write your Email Id, Name and Address. Now get 6 TEN RUPEE NOTES and place ONE inside EACH of the 6 pieces of paper so the NOTES will not be seen through the envelope to prevent thievery. What you are doing is creating a service by this. THIS IS ABSOLUTELY LEGAL! Mail the 6 envelopes to the following addresses:
  Main Database Address (Don't Delete or Change it): * Mr.Amit Raina, M/s Easy-way Computers,#129, Ist Floor, Opp Gurudwara, Upper Bazar, Chowk Chabutra, Jammu Tawi,India-180001
  Sub Addresses #1) Mr. Sumit Hno. 52, Upper Laxmi Nagar, Sarwal, Jammu Tawi, India-180005
  #2) Mr. Shafiq Husain C/o Hno. 52, Upper Laxmi Nagar, Sarwal, Jammu Tawi, India-180005
  #3) Anil Kumar Gupta, New Model Apartment, Flat-52, Plot-31, Sector-13, Rohini, Delhi 110 085, India
  #4)Mr. Anil C/o Easy-way Computers,#129, Ist Floor, Opp Gurudwara, Upper Bazar, Chowk Chabutra, Jammu Tawi,India-180001
  #5)Mr.Ramesh,Lakshmi Electrical works,Near Old Bus Stand,Goods Shed Road,Eluru-534002.
  STEP 2: Now goto Sub Addresses and take the #1 name off(delete) the list that you see above, move the other names up (5 becomes 4, 4 becomes 3,3 becomes 2 and 2 becomes no.1) and add YOUR Name as number 5 on the list. Try to Remember that you don't change the Main Database Address.
  STEP 3: Change only the names and address as in step 2 and keep this article as original . Now, post your amended article to minimum 200 newsgroups. (There are nearly 25,000 newsgroups) All you need is 200, but remember, the more you host, the more money you make!
  STEP 4: Send a E-mail to-> mailto: amitraina@softhome.net with the subject "Include Me in Main Database" and with the Description "I have sent to you and to the other 5 upline members a sum of Rupees ten each by Post/Courier." Send this mail only after you have sent postal mail/courier with money to the main member and to the other 5 upline members.
  STEP 5: You will receive a message fromamitraina@softhome.net immediately, (within 5 minutes) at your Mail Box stating that, "You have been added to our temporary database. And We will, i) include you in our Main Database, ii) send you a list of Newsgroups where you can post the Message, iii) send you instruction on how to post the Message, iv) send you details about other data entry, transcription, back-office, free subscription earning programs, online trades, businesses and about other projects on Net and offline as and when it is available and other details, after making neccessary cross-checks and after confirming the receipt of postal mail/courier from you. If you do not get any reply from us, even after 12 days from the date of sending Postal Mail/Courier, send a mail to amitraina@softhome.net with the subject 'No Reply from your side'. We would take necessary actions immediately."
