Gocha, these are fans, who have seen IR do things 800 times over. It is not like believeing in God, without seeing him physically or whatever. You have passion for IR's works, give it. it is not graceful to even think of ideas like yours. ;---) sorry about that. u have seen people investing in chit funds, without even bothering to know the past performace, when there was none! and to doubt this most awesome "force" on this planet.... i feel personally very sad, though i have not contributed yet....
Just believe in IR, no matter what. Believe me!

The TiS team is determined to make this happen and in fact, what mR.Gocha has suggested IS in our agenda. We were[and still are!] believing in IIR fans who have heard him, enjoyed him and downloaded his songs umpteen number of times, to consider this great man's noble cause and give whatever they can, as a token of Thanks to the Maestro. But, the good news is, neither IIR, nor Tamil maiyam nor the TiS team are going to be waiting in vain when our repeated pleas are going unheard! We would like to share with you all that the required money will be given to IIR in a few days and IIR is all set to go to Hungary for the recording in the next two weeks. In the meantime, if there are any souls out there[Kaalam AB, pl. note!] willing to and wanting to be part of this, to send your contributions in the next few days. Make your checks payable to TNF and send them to 102, Coppergreen St, Cary, NC 27513. Thanks.
YIA!!

As some of the members of the TiS team wanted to have additional time to plan a well-organized meeting at several places, we have requested IIR to postpone his visit by a fortnight. Exact dates will be announced well in advance to all in this forum. Pl. bear with us. Thanks.

May GOD bless them. Pl. read along!And then, pl. visit www.raaja.com for our address details. Make your checks in favor of "TNF" please.
YIA!!
Hello ****** *****:
I am very sorry for the delayed reply. As I told you
before, I did not have access to internet and also
occupied by something else completely. I just came
back from India. Though I am not aware of what's going
about TIS, I will look into the details soon in
internet. Meanwhile, keep send me any updates.
Coming to the donation I sent to you...for $150...I
have collected Rs.5521 which is around $125 and the
rest is my contribution to make it a round figure.
Here with I am giving the details of donars. Please
delete my name and add their names in the website. I
wanted to be anonymous.
1. S.Ramayya Rs.1116
2. Hari Krishna Rs.1116
3. A.K. Rao Rs.1000
4. S.Gautam Rs.500
5. Lakshmi Rs.500
6. Madhavi Rs.550
7. Sridhar Rs.500
8. P.L. Rs.200
9. Srinivasulu Rs.39
Really they are nice people. Though all they don't
know me personally, when I explained them about this
project and requested for donation they immediately
responded.
Esp., Mr.Hari Krishna is a 11th grade student who is
preparing for his engineering entrance and also
working part time, extended his help to this divine
project with his hard earned money. And Mr.
Srinivasulu.. a labourer in a field... was happened to
listen everything when I talking about TIS...though he
doesn't understand and know what a symphony is...he
himself came forward and donated whatever he had in
his pocket on that day. I hope the above gesture would
inspire more people to donate for TIS.
Thanks
*******

"We would like to share with you all that the required money will be given to IIR in a few days and IIR is all set to go to Hungary for the recording in the next two weeks."
If you've managed to collect $100,000 from US alone, that is a fantastic job. Good luck. Have you done that?

bb, triple S cannot reveal some things. Ot of those main ones are:
1. how was much collected in US
2. how the triple S contributed
3. how profit from selling CD's (if it happens by chance with all this sharing mp3 stuff going on) will be utilised
and on and on...

duplicate,
>1. how was much collected in US
Assuming you meant to say 'how much was collected',
They have already said that their goal of $100K has not been reached and that they intend to top it up to 100K in order for the project to proceed.
Many here have argued for and against a running total of amount collected. But it was understood (at least by me) that once the project is fully financed and SSS conclude their fund raising activities, all numbers and figures will be made available to the public.
It is unfair to insinuate anything until such time.
>2. how the triple S contributed
If you left out 'much' from this sentence by mistake, then it is quite ironic, because then the question becomes ‘how’ and not ‘how much’.
In terms of ‘how much’, they have already said that they contributed. Why should we be concerned about how much they contributed when we don't know that detail about anyone else who contributed to the US team? Everyone contributed as much as they could afford and according to the worth they put on this project. Period.
Even if a cynic assumes SSS did not contribute a penny in terms of ‘how much’, just the amount of time and effort they have put into this project and the abuse they have suffered in doing so is worth at least a few thousand dollars in contribution. That’s ‘how’ they contributed.
>3. how profit from selling CD's will be utilised
I think SSS does not have a say in this. This was decided even before SSS got involved in this project. It is hoped that the proceeds will help fund several projects for education and research in music. The virtues of these were also discussed at length here.
Hope this bit of rambling helps, that is of course, if you were seriously after answers. If your intention was just to stir the pot one last time, then congratulations, you have made me bite the bait.
