INDOLOGY > E-mail

Members' queries and information

This is an experimental area where INDOLOGY members may publish queries and information that are best served by Web presentation. That means, I think, queries which have a predominantly visual content, and some textual material that is too long to post to all the members of INDOLOGY as email.

The appearance of materials here in no way represents their endorsement by anyone. Indeed, materials may be posted here precisely because they are unusually puzzling or controversial.
