Dear Mervyn, Your analysis of recent GoaNet posts is very interesting and insightful.
But I do not know why you called Roland's post a bauble. Vivian lives many months of the year in Goa and the remaining months in various places in the USA including Baltimore. Even when in Goa Vivian travels around a lot and observes things and gets involved in real-life issues. What does Vivian know about cities and Baltimore and Panjim and Goa as compared to Roland Francis? After all Roland does more armchair research and analysis than any six overseas GoaNetters combined.

Goanet used to be a great meeting place, once upon a time.? This evening, as I started opening the posts for the past 10 days I found: 1) Approx 65% of the emails were composed entirely of a link i.e. essentially directing the reader away from this forum. 2) Another 25% of the emails were from people who either have a tough time writing a simple thought or are writing entire posts encrypted.? 3) Two posts from an interesting writer who sends a copy here, of what he writes elsewhere. 4) Lots of great pictures. 5) And then, there is the following bauble! >On Sun, 3/15/15, Roland Francis <roland.fran...@ymail.com> wrote: >Dear Vivian, >Years of living in Goa have no doubt made you soft in the head. >How else could I explain your "Panjim could be a world class city" and comparing what happened in Baltimore to the possibility in Goa. >Are you cut off from reality, Socorrkar?
