Hi Cecil: Excellent post. Thank you. Your humour posts are world-class (being Goan you are automatically world-class).
You asked for additions to the story: George Pinto pointed to the grasshopper's plight as another attempt by the Vatican to sideline insects of colour. Dr. Jose Colaco knew there was an anti-Portuguese bias to this story but could not figure it, so he blamed Goan journalists. Dr. Santosh Helekar said the grasshopper is potentially a rational scientic being. Joe Vaz responded that no one should question the religious faith of the ant. Marlon Menezes made all of them saints. Valmiki Falerio wrote that Rajan Narayan must be playing an adverse hand in this affair and blamed the newly launched Goan Obersever while in the same breath wished the Goan Observer well. It is good to laugh at ourselves.
