I'm too tired to argue, especially about this issue which is so redundant. Let those who have good memories of the Portuguese be nourished by them, let those who are angst-ridden, carry on nurturing the pain . It matters naught to me. It is too late in the day to be debating whether we are to sing mandos or bhajans. Goa has far more pressing problems than to constantly debate the issue of its cultural identity or allegiance. And don't be so mean to my pantheon of aging admirers. They could have a trick or two up their sleeve which you have yet to learn about, young Apollo er Velho. selma ____________________________________________________________________________________ Finding fabulous fares is fun.
