Urmărirea oficială a început pe data de 22.03.1985 (deşi am găsit în dosare şi rapoarte din ianuarie 1985) şi a continuat şi după fuga obiectivului „SAVU” pe data de 07.09.1988 în lagărul de refugiaţi politici din Istambul şi Ankara (Turcia). A fost luat în atenţie de Serviciul III din cadrul Inspectoratul Judeţean Dolj, pe linia problemei „Atlas”. Ȋn vreme ce ei „mă lucrau în urmărire informativă” cu atȃta zel … eu habar n-aveam! Ba chiar mă băgaseră în atenţia Serviciului de Contraspionaj (conform Notei RD. 5/890/1985): fiindcă aveam multe legături cu străinii. Ca-n filme poliţiste, numai că antieroul eram... EU însumi! Existau zile cȃnd mă „filau” pas cu pas (unde mergeam, cu cine mă întȃlneam, la ce oră anume), ba mă şi pozau... Eu nici nu mi-am dat seama! Cȃnd i-am istorisit chestia asta lui Ion Soare, el a adăugat rȃzȃnd: - Păăi, aveam Securitate, domnule (!) Revăzȃnd acest D.U.I. 742 „Savu”, format din 4 volume şi însumȃnd peste 1200 file! – cu menţiunea -, m-a apucat deodată o nemulţumire generală, o scȃrbă pentru această viaţă irosită, în zbatere continuă... cu o soartă mereu în cumpănă. Cȃt timp am pierdut şi cȃtă e...

Pierderi de manuscrise Am pierdut vreo 350 pagini de manuscrise în perioada aceea. A fost şi greşeala mea că mă grăbeam să le public ori să le scot din ţară... n-am avut răbdare să aştept. Dar cine se gȃndea atunci că o să cadă dictatura, cȃnd ea părea aşa de stabilă şi tare ca betonul?! 1) Trei plicuri mari şi groase, albe, puse la poşta din Craiova, din spatele Universităţii Centrale, şi expediate către aceeaşi Chantal Signoret în primele zile din septembrie 1988 – înaintea „fugii mele”. Acestea au fost confiscate de către Securitate şi menţionate în Dosariada lor, dar neînapoiate manuscrisele (în jur de 100 pagini) - în ciuda apelului meu către CNSAS, cu toate că majoritatea erau inofensive, adică: probleme propuse şi rezolvate de matematică, rebusuri, şi poeme nepolitice. Nu înţeleg nici acum de ce nu-mi înapoiază CNSAS-ul manuscrisele? Au fost distruse? Dar... au vrut să-mi facă rău cu tot dinadinsul... Curios, că alte doua plicuri, la fel de mari, trimise din Bucureşti de la o poşta din Drumul Taberei, în aceleaşi zile, au ajuns la Chantal, care mi le-a retrimis în Turcia. Deci Securitatea din capitală nu mă avea încă în...

A book on Smarandache's achievements throughout his life time with a short history on his personal life.

In the beginning, this international avant-garde was a mutism: to make literature by not writing literature at all!! (any mathematical/chemical/physical etc. abstract sign, any drawing, draft, picture, graffito (having no words, no letters) could mean a poem; the non-literature created became, paradoxically, a new kind of literature; later the paradoxism has generalized the old term of for the n-dimensional and other scientific (Lobacevsky, Riemann, Banach, etc.) spaces, thus a poem can be; an object, a being, a phenomenon, a status ... understandable in a universal language. And further, using mathematics and literature, he got to the Paradoxist Philosophy with the thesis that "Nothing is noncontradictorial" ....

Excerpt: Chapter 1. The Foreigner At Home. ?This is no my ain house; I ken by the biggin? o?t.? Two recent books* one by Mr. Grant White on England, one on France by the diabolically clever Mr. Hillebrand, may well have set people thinking on the divisions of races and nations. Such thoughts should arise with particular congruity and force to inhabitants of that United Kingdom, peopled from so many different stocks, babbling so many different dialects, and offering in its extent such singular contrasts, from the busiest over-population to the unkindliest desert, from the Black Country to the Moor of Rannoch. It is not only when we cross the seas that we go abroad; there are foreign parts of England; and the race that has conquered so wide an empire has not yet managed to assimilate the islands whence she sprang. Ireland, Wales, and the Scottish mountains still cling, in part, to their old Gaelic speech. It was but the other day that English triumphed in Cornwall, and they still show in Mousehole, on St. Michael?s Bay, the house of the last Cornish-speaking woman. English itself, which will now frank the traveller through the most of...

Female spouse of one’s brother is called `sister-in-law`; similarly the sister of one’s spouse is sister-in-law. Again, the wife of one’s brother-in-law is also called sister-in-law, subject however to the condition that the said brother-in-law is not the husband of one’s own sister. Thus, in Indian society, we find a vast variety of sister-in-law. However, one factor of commonality is often found in the cases where at both ends of this relationship, we have females. The say that this factor provides sauce to our family life, by swift maneuvers of their inimical or endearing postures towards each other. The author has picked up every variety of this relationship from the middle-class stratum of Indian society, while sketching his story for this fictional narration. However, in a given situation, we feel like addressing or being addressed as `MUY DEAR SISTER-IN-LAW`. To take the story forward, the author has tried his best to strew certain suchlike expressions coming forth sporadically, uttered by one or the other character, irrespective of his/her sex....

Of course, this infirm oldie his first ever acquaintance with Vibha Ratra took place, when his family ... Our mother, though surprised to be getting acquainted by her son to Mrs Wilson as the bride's mother, chose to maintain silence about her knowledge of that lady's `swarthy` reputation in the residential vicinity, during their adolescence. Instead of consoling his father in a socially approved manner, the arrogant son had yelled out at the top of his voice, "Papa, you have had enough of her during the past 45 years. In case, you still need a woman's company, there is no dearth of this lot to provide warmth to your body. The following day, while exiting from the faculty meet, Vibha marked that Dr Rawat looked eager to join her, while she was proceeding towards the group of some junior teachers of her department, already waiting for their head of the department.
