I had posted full details of the screening on Goanet and in various other forums. Newspapers also carried the information. It was specifically mentioned that the film-maker would be present and that there would be a discussion after the screening. Well, given that you have all these issues with the film, why didn't you come for the screening and pose your queries directly to the film-maker? If you were busy or unable to attend, you could have asked friends of yours who shared your concerns to attend. Maybe it is the desire for anonymity which you have already displayed on this forum (by posting anonymously) which prevented you. It's always convenient to snipe away from hiding, rather than coming out into the open? Anyway, there was a very animated discussion after the screening and some of the issues that you have raised here were discussed. I am not bothering to respond to the rest of your post, since it is quite clear that your only interest is in taking cheap potshots from hiding. Your earlier posts on the issue of the workshop, your shifting ground as each statement of yours was tackled, this post of yours, and the fact that you did not come for the screening and ask the film-maker your questions directly -- all go to show that you have no interest in answers or discussion. Oh, by the way, thanks for one suggestion of yours: > I would request everyone to indeed watch the film and > see for themselves Excellent idea, it's obviously the best way to judge. Anybody who is interested is welcome to contact me for copies of the film; you can also write directly to Rakesh Sharma at [EMAIL PROTECTED] If any of you can organise a screening for a larger audience, please do so. -- Question everything -- Karl Marx _______________________________________________ Goanet mailing list [email protected] http://lists.goanet.org/listinfo.cgi/goanet-goanet.org
