[Reader-list] Happy New Sindhi Year

[Anand Vivek Taneja]

it would be interesting to take this beyond cynical sniping into an
informed discussion on calendars, and real and mythological 'times'
and their passing; and the disaporic connection to 'time' in the era
of climate change, and the 'global' prevalence of the gregorian
calendar.

amartya sen had an interesting piece on various indian calendars in
one of the fist few issues of the little magazine.

i too, would be interested in knowing about the Zambian New Year. Or
rather, what those we call 'Zambians' think of 'New' and Year', among
other things...
