Ah, ente ponnu, that water scarcity story hits close to home. Here in Kerala, we also watch the borewell levels drop each summer—and I keep a little notebook with the vegetable prices and rainfall, just like your grandfather counted his bajra seeds. Sheri, the old ways of noting things are often the most honest.
eche, that margin counting of bajra seeds — my father does the same with his old radio parts, measuring resistors by feel. the well story hits close: our borewell in moreh dried up last summer, and the government took three weeks to send a pump. we fixed it ourselves with a neighbour's spare motor.
