Dear Sherlockians, I agree with Tim. However, what is interesting is that the Sherlock Holmes stories prior to "His Last Bow" barely contain any reference to...
I am not quite sure what a definition of pacifist is, because even adherents of pacifism took to driving ambulances on the front lines in the World Wars. There...

Dear Anand and Holmesians, I agree . I was supposed to send a message to Mr Sachin using the mail feature which is in this society's web page,but being not so...
Dear Anand, I guess, since we're all Holmesians, anything we say is indirectly related to the Canon :D Further, as I doubt we communicate with one other in any...
Dear Sumal and SHians, You're right, Sumal. In fact, Sir ACD mentions the exact words "the futility of war" in the beginning paras of 2 different adventures....
Nix to that. I don't think it's a worthwhile project at all. Russel Crowe may have been a good Gladiator, but he'll never measure up to a faithful rendering of...
Both right, Indrajeet. We have often discussed the repeated discrepancies in different Adventures in the Canon. This is but one instance. Like I have said...
I think the reason is more psychological and related to human nature. Moriarty thought he was unbreakable, but Sherlock managed to break him. He thought he was...

Dear Holmesians, There is some great news.This society has been deducing right it seems. There is going to be a film made with Sherlock Holmes as its hero and...
Dear Holmesians, To resurrect an old topic, the proof of SH's solicitousness towards Mrs Watson can be found in the Boscombe Valley mystery where Holmes sends...
To my knowledge, the martial art mentioned is jujitsu, not baritsu,or bartitsu. And by the way , facts taken from wikipedia are not always accurate. Cheers!!! ...
Dear Sherlockians, Apologies, once again, for being absent for so long! In fact, I have been doing a lot of moving these days, attending seminars and...
I got an idea. Anyone who wants to learn Bartitsu should watch Chinese martial arts movies, especially those movies which have got "Shaolin temple" or "monk"...
Dear Sri and Holmesians, It seems Baritsu is seeing a revival in popularity. I wish some one teaches it in India so that we can see what it is all about? ...
