Hi Dilip,
I’m a first time commenter, and a second time lurker here. I came here by the dint of your lovely salon article. I’m, however, befuddled and distressed in equal measure to see you reeling out new blogs as a remembrance for the deceased. What exactly does a list of names in ephemeral html accomplish? Internet, as it exists in India, does not have any kind of wide reach and the blogosphere is a much more miniscule part of that. What good does the heft of its identity as a stand alone blog do in help remembering past events? Please do elaborate on this, as I’m sure you have a good reason in there.

and that was just the A…
rather than just names, if you could give some info on any NGO working for the welfare of the victims it would be nicer. or a way to reach out to these victims..
i just think its so inadequate to mourn for a week when a calamity strikes, whenever riots,earthquakes, etc happen and then believe you have done ur bit by contributing to the PMNRF and not partying for a week, and that the victim would have got the money and would have moved on with their life..
we wouldnt do it if it was our family member. and even if one cant reach out to everyone, and make their life wonderful, surely one can reach out to atleast one and be there, and do something . after all isnt something better than nothing..

What exactly does a list of names in ephemeral html accomplish?
1. Induces guilt in certain people
2. Flares up communal tension (Dilip wants a riot)
3. Support a certain political party
4. Provide legitimacy to terror attacks and terrorists
