Hi, Following is a mail I got in response to a post I made in ILUGC years ago - from the person I was talking about.
---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Jey Veerasamy <...> Date: Wed, Dec 28, 2011 at 11:10 PM Subject: Hello To: mano... Sorry, I do not know about you, except that I ran into the following post in Google Search. I am that Jeyakesavan Veerasamy :-) BTW, while it is possible, I do not remember carrying that book with me :-) Antivirus software is true though. http://www.ae.iitm.ac.in/pipermail/ilugc/2008-June/042207.html *Mano* <ilugc%40ae.iitm.ac.in?Subject=%5BIlugc%5D%20%5BOT%5D%20self%20taught%20programmers%20vs%20programmers%20with%20degrees&In-Reply-To=e3dcb5360806292117o3f58f585s7b40336123189546%40mail.gmail.com> *Mon Jun 30 10:30:05 IST 2008* Jeyakesavan Veerasamy, a big name in CS research now, was from a tamil medium school. During the first few months in college he was always found with a speak english in 30 days kind of book - without a care to the fun the rest of us were making of him! By the second semester he had shut us all up by writing an anti-virus software that became the de facto standard in AU and IIT campus. mano -- Regards, Jey Veerasamy, -- Lord, give us the wisdom to utter words that are gentle and tender, for tomorrow we may have to eat them. -Sen.
