Thank you Herman for putting names to the team that is responsible for linking Goans together like never before. I raise a glass of the finest scotch to the future of this net and of all Goans wherever they are.
You and the volunteers of Goanet need to know that you are doing a fine job and have my personal support. Please let me know in whichever small way I can volunteer to do my part. This weekend I shall be going to the website to make my humble donation. Humble in amount, but not in the spirit in which I give. Count yourselves as pioneers of global communications between Goans. If my dreams of a Museum to the Goan Spirit one day come true (and we need to pursue it as best we can) then you and your team must find a prominent place in the exhibits, else when my turn comes to lose the surly bonds of earth, I shall return to haunt whichever curator is responsible, for the rest of his or her life. While I savor the last sips of the mellow scotch with which I am toasting you, Fred, Viv, Bosco, Daisy, Michelle, Chris and Debby, I shall dare to hope this this forum from creating social capital becomes a catalyst for many good Goan creations to come. I encourage all Goans who visit here to donate whatever they can, both loudly like I do so as to spur others, or silently if that is their way. May all the saints Catholic, Hindu and Muslim who favor Goans, reward you with the ability to continue your effort and the rest of us us with the capacity to appreciate it. Viva Goanet! _______________________________________________ Goanet mailing list [email protected] http://lists.goanet.org/listinfo.cgi/goanet-goanet.org
