A few enlightenments from Mario (as usual). 
Thanks for informing me that Afra Dias is a she and that's her real name. 
Now I can sleep better though her posts often keep me awake. :=))

I did provide the official / cultural names for Goan Hindus and Catholics.
So we are NOT "Loosely speaking we are all Koknos". 
We are all accurately speaking "Konkans".
I hope someone can clarify this. 

Should I be apologizing to the existing "College of ayatollahs"?
Do I detect a little discomfort from the grand ayatollah?:=))

In case any poster wonders what's this?   
"Ayatollizing" is the twenty-first century variation of pontificating 
undertaken by ayatollahs who are generally self-appointed or & on occasion 
treated as such by their goanet devotees.:=))
"Ayatollizing" is not necessary the same as "Huttonizing".  Remember the 
phrase, "When EF Hutton talks people listen". 
Regards, GL

Cheap shot, Gilbert.  I think YOU need to apologise. 
What he was complaining about was the derogatory use of the term "Hindu boys" 
by Afra Dias in her gratuitous and snide references to Fr. Eusebio's 
associations.
