Thanks Frederick , you are the second person who wrote to me to say not to
waste my time with Mario.
I had no intention of wasting my time with further arguments with him, but I
just could not let it pass this time, as I don't know who Mario is besides
being a reactionary probably living in USA.
Obviously I am new to goanet and learning the ropes! But my intention is to
just concentrate on what is going on in Goa now and engage in constructive
exchange of ideas to see if we can really achieve something more concrete
than just an exchange of e-mails....
Thanks again and regards
Carmen

Hi Carmen, Don't worry too much about Mario and his reactionary
political views. I often suspect that he repeats them often so as to
convince himself!
On the other hand, if you dare to discuss with him, then you will soon
find yourself (and Goanet) caught in a quagmire of ceaseless
discussion, that never ends, tires you out and simply wins on the
basis of triumphant last-wordism!
In a short time on Goanet, it's easy to discern who's worth debating
with, and who's just a waste of time! Of course, we all have our own
respective bees in our Goan bonnets! FN
