[Goanet] Selma Carvalho's book some unsavoury comments - (Response on Santosh Helekar's posting by Rose Fernandes)
Dear Santosh Contrary to how you think, you are now fast becoming my second best friend, the first place was taken a long time ago by someone else who I sincerely have and will always have the greatest fondness for. Over the last week, every day when I wake up and open Melvyn's orange mail (I am his expendable unpaid secretary), there just waiting to be opened is a posting from you. Fills me with such excitement, its so sweet of you taking time out to engage with me rather than spending the time reading past Chapter 2 of the well written, well researched and presentable Book... What's bothering me is that I am making you so distracted, will you ever get past Chapter 2? Are you aware that apart from the mighty goanet, there are lots of ways to stay connected with ones best friends - facebook, twitter, skype, mobile ...etc. etc. Rose Fernandes Thornton Heath, Surrey, United Kingdom 16 May 2014

Dear Rose, Selma's book is excellent. I just read two more chapters. I would advise you to start reading it, and buy copies for all your best friends. You seem like a person who has many best friends both out of love and jealousy. My best to you.

[Goanet] Selma Carvalho's book some unsavoury comments - (Response on Santosh Helekar's posting by Rose Fernandes)
Dear readers Santosh Helekar wrote to me I am not sure what this cross examination is about. My response: To mark his arrival at Melvyn's cross roads, one sign reading Goans don't tell the right story and the other sign a chorus going Ya, ya, ya, ya anything goes. The wording of the other two signs Melvyn is working on. On the cover of A Railway Runs Through this is what CS Nicholls has written: Quote This fascinating, well-researched book makes the reader turn every page with interest, anxious to find out what happens to this talented community. Unquote Santosh Helekar in his response to me wrote: Quote But I only read a couple of chapters and browsed through the whole book Unquote Does this mean Santosh Helekar was not anxious to find out what happened to this talented community after Chapter 2? Turn every page with interest that is from the beginning to the end of the book? Or is browse the new buzz word for read. Rose Fernandes Thornton Heath, Surrey, United Kingdom 15 May 2014

Dear Rose, Yes, I am interested (not anxious) in knowing what happened to the talented community, and I will read the rest of the book in the next couple of weekends. Can you please tell me why you are so bothered if someone says that Selma's book is well-researched and well-written? Cheers, Santosh P.S.- BTW, Are you a member of the talented community? Since you are new to Goanet, any introduction you provide about yourself would be helpful.

Dear Santosh This is what you wrote (not someone else) in Message 9, Goanet Digest Vol 9, Issue 286 on Monday 12 May 2014: Quote Selma's book is well-researched and well-written. Unquote Just two days later on 14 May 2014, in Message 7, Goanet Digest, Vol 9, Issue 291 you wrote: Quote But I only read a couple of chapters .. Unquote My final response to you: A classic State of Goan confusion. If you do not understand what you write, there is absolutely no chance you will understand what I write, so if you agree this matter is closed.

COMMENT: it is more than interesting to note that you have copied lescarvalhos, Rose has been on this forum for a number of years, back to the drawing board. She has already explained that she is more than the better half of Melvyn Fernandes. What part of her post do you find difficult to comprehend? Kindly ask I shall try my very best to help you out, Better still Rose more than capable to answer that herself. Yeah, we on the other side are all stupid, we don't know where the lines are drawn! -- DEV BOREM KORUM Gabe Menezes.

Dear Rose, I don't agree with anything you have written so far. I said someone, not someone else. That someone included me and the historian Christine Nicholls. I already told you why I think Selma's book is well written and well researched. If you disagree then please tell me why. I also would like to know why you were so troubled by my positive impression of Selma's book so as to make sarcastic remarks directed at me. What have I done to you? I would also like to know who you are since you are new to Goanet.
