Dear Francis, Thank you for the advice. I maybe ashamed to be Goan on account of the Da Vinci Code debacle but I am still a Goan and there are still Goans in Goa and in diaspora, that make me proud to call myself a Goan. No doubt, the Da Vinci episode will soon be forgotten but something very precious will have been lost. Our reputation as being progressive, tolerant and democratic.
