Hi Cornel Unfortunately, the caste system is alive and well and flourishing, not just in Goa. But do you really expect a serious discussion, including from the cybergoan community, on such an important? I think it is too difficult for most to interrupt nostalgic memories of Goa (including pre-1961), fish and feni. Heaven forbid, they might even have to turn off the music, stop the dance or miss a picnic.
