Once upon a time:
-Window was a gap in a wall
-Application was a request on paper
-Mouse was an animal
-Hard drive was an uncomfortable road trip
-Cut was done with scissors and paste with glue
-Web was a spider’s creation
That’s when we had a lot of time for friends and family!
Can you be as selfless as the Sun
Showing light to the Earth all its life
Or as kindhearted as the Earth
Giving shelter to man, animals & plants alike
Can you be as noble as a tree
And not shed a tear when its fruit is taken
Or be as forgiving as the rose
And give fragrance to the hand, it is crushed within
Can you be as tender as a Mother
To love her children unconditionally
If not, at least be humane, forget the past
And give, you’ll be as happy you can ever be!

Every minute someone leaves this world behind, remember we are all “in the line” without knowing it.
We never know how many people are before us.
We can not move to the back of the line.
We can not step out of the line.
We can not avoid the line.
So while we wait in line –
Make moments count.
Make priorities.
Make the time.
Make your gifts known.
Make a nobody feel like a somebody.
Make your voice heard.
Make the small things big.
Make someone smile.
Make the change.
Make love.
Make up.
Make peace.
Make sure to tell your people they are loved.
Make sure to have no regrets.
Make sure you are ready.”

See: Memento mori and remember Rene DAVID
I have many things to remember about my friend and guru Rene DAVID. I learnt a lot about Petri nets and Grafcet from him. My PhD work used Petri nets. I also managed to get him to India, Hyderabad, to deliver a one-week course on Petri Nets and Grafcet (along with Hassane Alla), in Dec. 1991. This course was conducted on behalf of IEEE Hyderabad, and was sponsored by the French Embassy in India.
He also gifted me his book on this subject (which was originaly written in French. I helped him in its translation to English). I cherish this book, till today.
He visited my home, celebrated Christmas with us, inspected and approved the accessible house I had built with the inspiration he had given me in Grenoble, France. It was a memorable experience for my children and me.
Rene might have left us, but his books and his memories will always be with us.

It is a sad duty for me to announce the death of my long-time friend and guru René DAVID (1939–2022). I met him first in 1977 when I went to Grenoble for my Doctorate. I had a lot of close interactions with him during my stay there. He was a remarkable scientist, sportsperson, and above all, a highly-cultured gentleman. He inspired me to think and act seriously about accessibility for disabled. He introduced me to a whole lot of friends, each with some remarkable qualities. I built my house, keeping him in mind, and was fortunate to have him here and endorse/approve my design. I have some of the books he wrote.I helped him in its translation. And I have a lot of literature (some translated by me) on IRIS, the device to help blind persons practice archery.
Rene, I will miss you. May you rest in peace.
Rene might have left us, but his memories will stay with us forever.

Prime Minister of India inaugurates 216-foot “statue of equality” in Hyderabad !
Time to rejoice ! Devotees of Saint Ramanujacharya, and residents of Hyderabad, should be happy and proud of this colossal monument.
But why has no one thought about the other Ramanujan ? Will we have to wait for another 1000 years, to appreciate how mathematics brings in equality and lasting peace, or how Ramanujan brought pride to India, or how shamefully ignorant we are ?
