the online telephone directory. But one has to make sure you search for a name "anywhere in the listings" (rather than using the 'starts with' option). Response: Well Fred, if you read my post, I said: "Most simple names do not even come up." I went once again on the site for a check and tried your name. Sorry mate, even you are not listed! I then tried names of my family members and friends in Goa, and most of them too are not listed. I even called some in Goa to check if their numbers were unlisted for any reason, and they told me that it was not the case. We have to remember that telephone directories should be complete and have all names so people can search for the relevant telephone numbers in time of need. That is the point of having a telephone directory. Tell me Fred: Do you believe that the BSNL website is good enough? Surely it needs improvement, and that is what I was talking about in the first place. Regards, Salus
