Enough Dr. J Perumal, Phd

[Guest guest]

Hey Dr. J Perumal:

 

What the heck is this? Why cut and paste such large ill-arranged

chunks of astro-data? Just give us the address to your website and

we'll go visit.

 

Also, why multiple posts of the same stuff?

Sigh! It did not work, Mukund!! Maybe we should ask Dr. Perumal Ph.D

(two doctorates, one before and another after the name!) to analyze

the following chart and give us a few significant salient points

about this nativity and convince us that He is The One we have been

looking for. This taste of reality has *a-l-w-a-y-s* worked before

here and elsewhere (why else do you think I press on for examples

and charts in certain messages?) ;-)
