George,
Does your following post fit your idea of conserving bandwidth? Arent you
leading by example -- by the stuff you post, which is (also) wasted
bandwidth?
ALL postings that do not offer sensible or meaningful message/s should be

PS: Believe your post below got lost in the trash-box and escaped the
persnickety eyes of our cyber-security, and managed to elude the scrutiny of
the Snopes.com that filters internet urban legends, hoaxes and chain
letters. :)

Very true. George Bush family also hails from Goa. Bush family comes
from Moira, their Aryan ancestors had migrated to India during the
Aryan invasion and then settled in Gomantak, now called Goa.

All,
I was doing some non-historical research at the Panjim Central Library
this morning and this is what I learnt:
Zubin Metha was born Zerome Mendes and
grew up in Salcette. As a young boy, while playing at
Colva beach, he got the idea to become a conductor and took the stage name
Zubin Metha.
It is not well known that his first job was a bus
conductor on the Vasco-Panjim route which inspired him to Philharmonic
conducting.
In fact, a bus conductor job inspires most to
anything except bus conducting.
Englebert Humperdick was born in Chicalim.
His birth name was Joao but when he
visited Benaulim some people called him John.
To avoid any confusion and a
Portuguese-English conflict, he settled
on the name Englebert Humperdick which is spelt in Romi Konkani as
Englebert Humperdick. He used
to hang out in Vasco as a teenager
where the girls ignored him, hence
the song A MAN WITHO
