Root of Kannada....

This posting is only to Kannada Chauvanist and who abuse Tamils. My intention is not to blame entire Kannadigas and Karnataka.
In this forum, few Kannadigas claim that Kannada and Tamil are derived from Proto-Dravidian Language and Kannada is not derived from Tamil.
From their words itself, I would like to give some proof for 'Kannada is derived from Tamil only'.
Objective: Kannda is derived from Tamil.
Proof and Explanation:
Meaning of the word 'Dravida' : This Sanskrit word is believed to be an equivalent of Prakrit form of the word in Tamil
Transformation of word Tamil to Dravida:
Tamil to Prakrit Language:
Thamizha(Tamilian) -> Damila -> Damida
Prakrit to Sanskrit Language
Damida -> Dramida -> Dravida
For proof please refer to the following link:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dravida
Conclusion:
According to the above fact Dravida is Tamil and Tamil is Dravida.
So, Kannada is derived from Proto-Dravidian Language, i.e Proto-Tamilian Language, i.e Tamil Language.
So the root of 'Kannada' is 'Tamil'.
