As a very close friend of Rene's, Vivian's comments should be taken with a huge
grain of salt. If
the idea what mooted in Oct 1993, then what was done about the idea? What was
done from Oct 1993
till Goa Sudharop built WGD in 2000. Or was it one of Rene's other failed ideas
prior to WGD?
Sorry Vivian you not fooling anyone with your email below. WGD would not have
happened without the
founding efforts of Goa Sudharop and I am amazed that you who were not involved
ONE BIT, should
pretend to know now. However, I agree with you. Lets give credit to everyone
who made it happen.
I have already listed them previously, including credit to Rene. Do not let
friendship blind you
to truth.
Regards,
George
