- I noted the same thing- there's the faux-erudite Kalki, the
- exuberant, simple-minded Kalki, and the Kalki who's just sorta
- there. There may be more than that, which accounts for the
- volume of posts... I think either a buncha HK's have suckered some
- lonely undergrad into letting them use his account, or Kalki's
- tapeworm is a schizophrenic speed-fiend.
- "Kalki" is one of the avatars of Vishnu; I believe the one who's
- supposed to come chastise the vicious at the end of the world.
- "Dasa" may mean "barbarian" or "slave", but I'm not real sure- been
- a long time since I studied the Vedas.
