MrJudge!!!
Your comments are so below the belt that they rob the merit of whatever little sense you try to make. ARR is a master in his own right, very much the same way IR is. YSR is young star on rise and comparisons are always odious. They are even more absurd in the field of art. Just think how naive on would sound if they started comparing Thiruvalluvar with bharathiyar and Ilango adigal or Keats! Thiruvalluvar's style was expressing a profound truth with brevity bordering non-expression, while someone like Kambar was overflowing with ideas and allegories. In much the same way musicians also cannot be compared which is what IR said in his "How To Name It?" with a piece called "Dont compare".
Now I appeal to you to refrain from calling ARR as TB or by any other name. This is not to regain any honour for ARR, but for you to be seen as some one with a good point for discussion. Otherwise your posts will end up as a few more MBs in the e-garbage that is around many forums these days. Of course you are free to disregard this simple piece of advice and take your wonderful potshots at me too.
Thanks for your useful piece of advice. I think you got me wrong here. I have not compared the mds (atleast in this thread), my reply was just about retired mds. So I guess your posting is not aimed at me except calling him TB piece.
