   Heh.

   Sequel:

   (Everything Madras was, Bangalore is)

   Everyone Madras had, Bangalore has.

   Doing Madras bored Madrasis and they now do Bangalore.

   Madrasis once did Bombay and were sent back to Madras.

   A Madrasi’s “Core Competency” can’t be questioned. It has to be realised.

   You are one of the very, very few people I know who use ’s’ instead of ‘z’ in realisation.

   I started out to write a comment, and it got so long that I decided to make it a post on my blog. I’ve lived in both cities so I believe I’m qualified to give an impartial view. And I’m neither Tamilian or Kannadiga.

   Well I am both Tamil and Kannada…I was born in Bangalore and brought up in Madras. I know what you mean by ‘Bangalore is what Madras was…’
