Dear Mr. Helliker, I thought you might like to read the following:
hello steve
it is always emotional to report about losing of fighters yes we lost one more this time one of our commanders
It makes us more angry and loaded with the spirit of all those who left us in this long war on this coming no pesticide use day- the third december - remembering the lives lost in bhopal and the survivors who are asking for justice we will also join to demand justice for all the bhopals in the world.
we are also asking for a ban of endosulfan worldwide we cannot loose any more lives both human animal and plant lives.
We need to make the corporates to pay up the liabilities.
We mourn with anger and we share this with you asking your support for continuing this struggle

Kumaran Master succumbs to endosulfan-inflicted disease
VANINAGAR: Endosulfan, the deadly pesticide, has claimed one more life in Vani Nagar, here, on Thursday. N Kumaran Master, who was in the forefront of many a anti-endosulfan agitation, succumbed to cancer after being bed-ridden for a prolonged period.
Struggling with his endosulfan-inflicted disease, Kumaran Master had tried every system of medicine and consulted expert doctors for the last three years.
The sufferings of Kumaran Master had hogged the media attention too.
Most of the political leaders in the State, including Opposition leader V S Achuthanandan, BJP State president C K Padmanabhan, CPI leader K Vasudevan Nair and a host of environmentalists had visited Kumaran Master while he was bed- ridden.
A native of Uduma, Kumaran Master had retired as the Headmaster Government High School in Panaje in Karnataka, 10 km from his native village of Vaninagar.
