It is a matter of great pride that Goanet has eminent scholars such as Dr Jose Pereira and others posting to this forum. Dr Jose, your discussions really add value to Goanet. If any Goanetters still haven't come across this veteran Sanskrit scholar, artist, writer on global architectural historical trends and more, then just google for "Jose Pereira + Goa" or some such combination of key-words. It was my pleasure to meet up with Dr Pereira when he was working on the frescoes at the Borda chapel, and we had a long and interesting discussion. Maybe I should repost that article ... if enough Goanetters haven't read it. We look forward to your reasoned discussions (as also those of Luis Santa Rita Vas and Jorge de Abreu Noronha), which undeniably add value for all reading this. Mr Vas, can you share some of your short stories located in Goa? It continues to be a dream that a tiny place like Goa can build a large footprint of its own in cyberspace, by sharing resources and digitising the information we have. We really need to encourage kids to write, youngsters to take to professional writing, and those who have already written to digitise and share their work. This is a win-win-win-win game, believe me. I've gained a hundredfold (not necessarily in monetary terms, but in so many different ways) for the little I've shared over the past decade.
