Hi Samir, It appears that I sure did ruffle your feathers with my last post.
Regarding my credentials and contributions to Goa, India and the world - All I can say is that I am working at the grass-roots level and you can find out about some of my global activities from the Internet. However there a couple of credentials I am really very proud about - First: I am a true GOAN and very proud to be one ! Second: I am also very proud to be from INDIA ! You may also want to know that some of my current research is focused on using system engineering principles to help India win the Hockey World Cup and Olympic Gold Medal and regain its past hockey glory. I am working with some prominent Indian Olympians on this project. In these days of the Internet, you dont need to be in India or Goa to make lasting contributions and bring about change. Also as a Goa Infotech Corp board member, you should be in a unique position to help flush out the Maharashtrawadi moles (and attitudes like that) in the Goa Infotech Corporation. Only then can there be true sustainable progress in Goa ! Please send me Manohar Parrikar's email ID if you have it and well as the email IDs of other IITians in Goa - we need to synchronize the activities of Goan IITians and kick them up into high gear - all for the greater good of our beloved Goa. May be we should have a Goan IITian conference in India in Dec 2006 or early Jan 2007. Best Regards, Dr. Carmo D'Cruz Goan, IITian - Class of 1982 Indian Harbour Beach, Florida From: Samir Kelekar > >Please dont make accusations just like that. >You seem to be a chauvinist Goan. > _______________________________________________ Goanet mailing list Goanet@lists.goanet.org http://lists.goanet.org/listinfo.cgi/goanet-goanet.org
