A good reply, but please do not mind my giggling a bit: I think in your fire & brimestone mood you failed to notice that it was "Dias" ... not "Das": perhaps, not quite the "ghanti" you made out.
Divar is a favourite: when I have visited Mario Cabral e Sa I made the rounds of many mansions,
including Armando/Gearge's. That are quite a few Menezes in Divar, very illustrious most of them.

Dear Mr. F. Das,
Not understanding a joke once is perhaps excusable. Not understanding it after repeated attempts at clarification is well ... a joke.
I am also very offended that you misspelled my family's last name. Uncle Gabe and I come from the island of Divar and are direct descendents of Vasco Fernandes Cesar de Menezes, one of Goa's most famous viceroys. I find it very insulting that you Indian Goan Asian outsiders come to Goa and do not respect our Portuguese heritage. I think all Goans who do not have Portuguese blood in them should be made to pass a test for their goanness. I demand that the government of Goa conduct mass DNA testing to separate the phoney goans from the real goons. Furthermore, Mr. Das, the fact that you have "India" in your email suggests that you are a traitor to the pure Goanese cause.
Dev borem korum (which is portuguese for "death to the infidels")
