Haven't read the story yet, but if anyone is calling the deity the Juggenaught instead of the spelling that's been accepted for 60 years now ...Jagannath (Lord of the World), their efforts also will come to naught.... :) OK, OK...I agree that's spelling Nazism, but I still bristle when I hear...and then read.... the British mauling of Indian place names like Mejura (Madurai) Seringapetam (Srirangapatna) and Serampore (Srirampur). Oh well....I've drifted the thread nicely, though, let it float upon the etymological waters. Deepa.
