Cecil - as usual you have managed to find humor in any situation. My
only question is this: If caste can be ascertained by name and village,
why is there ever a need to mention it?

What Frederick Noronha thinks:
Fernandes from Chinchinim? Mmmmm! Must find out what caste they are.
What Frederick Noronha does:
Opens his indexed database. Enters "Fernandes" and "Chinchinim" and
finds out what caste family your sister-in-laws married into.
... In a chance conversation sometimes, normally surrounding a
marriage proposal, caste might just be mentioned. But these are very
rare occurrences. But here on GoaNet caste seems to be very much
discussed. Maybe it's part of some higher vision.
