About Renaissance personality & Trans-techxual folks
© Uday Gokhale

We many times meet, work with or ‘stuck with’ (depending upon how you look at it), persons with diverse aptitudes. They are widely known as say Computer experts but are very good at building their own wooden furniture. They come in several colors. Some are great accountants and fabulous cooks on side. Some are clever Patent attorneys & quintessential film script writers.

Yep, many personalities living in a single body. Hold it Mac , don’t use that schizoph..... word.

It is great to be able to appreciate Claude Monet, probe into decision crisis of Abhimanu and yet aim to get fantastic chiral induction using a Nayori hydrogenation catalyst.

Other day in our engineering company we had one social function. One guy who was considered close to anti social took initiative & performed one skit. Very hilarious skit. We all got a heart attack of our life time. Hey, we never thought he would have such a nice sense of humor. From next day he was popular as the rediscovered ‘Trans-techxual’.

He came out of closet.

In Chennai, now you can declare yourself as gender T and get a ration card.
In your CV, don’t refrain from adding suffix P if you are a great Painter.
e.g. Ph. D.( Inorganic chemistry, P). You never know, your interviewer may be a fan of Monet. You will surely get a job if not a ration card !


So, folks if you have many talents, come out in open. We can’t afford to have too crowded closets.

Where is William Safire these days? He may note that Trans-techxual is my coinage.
