Samir Kelekar wrote (SK) appears interested in a 'debate'. Even though, I concede at the outset that Samir has won, I place my thoughts (interspersed herewith as JC. I am reminded that the summer months are times for unwarranted duels and aggravation. So, here goes .. ..
SK [1] Do you have some strong reason to believe that the two Sapnas --- the one who has posted and the one who one finds via google are different ? JC 1: As a reasonable man, I realised that there could more than one Sapna Shahani in this world. That is why I asked the question. Now I KNOW for sure from her (I will NOT reveal the details (she has shared with me) to you or anyone else). = SK [2] If not, you are unnecessarily being paranoid. JC 2: And you, Sir, are being quite necessarily brilliant. = SK[3] In any case, why did you have to get into a full Ramayana on a query about the Inquisition ? JC 3: Not the Ramayana .....only the MahaBharata and other like events in which 'more than a couple people' were killed = SK [4] Surely, if you dont have a strong reason --- especially after the clarification by Sapna --- you are purely being paranoid. JC 4: Surely, your brilliance has just demonstrated to you that you are even more brilliant now than ever before. == SK [5] Or is it your usual "kathakali" dance to wriggle out of giving straight answers to questions you have trouble handling ? JC 5: My "kathakali" dance is NO excuse for the alleged Goa Freedom Fighters from telling us WHY they had no plan for post-1961 Goa. You proclaimed (loudly) 5 years ago that you would find out and let us know - the next time you went down to Goa. Your answer is awaited. Instead, all I see is this Dekhi and Fugdi fusion dance that you do. Of course, you do not need to post a detailed answer IF this present chaos, corruption and filth was the actual master-plan of the alleged Freedom Fighters. While you think of the answers - I will post your standard 'retort' phrases - in advance i.e. Portuguese boot-licker, Come down to Goa and walk the talk, etc etc jc ps: Having been declared the winner (by me) - do you want to waste your precious time arguing (err debating) further with someone like me. I would say NO. Right?
