RESPONSE:
Gentlemen,
While I appreciate the valiant work you do and "feel your pain &
frustrations", I wonder if what you do, is worth it and if it is
anymore than a band-aid trying to prevent serious blood loss from an
on going hemorrhage.
Floriano has (IMHO) accurately represented the recent historical facts
- which continue to be conveniently "revised".....and Nisser, perhaps,
is totally exasperated by what he sees and what he has learnt.
Unfortunately, the goods train is rolling on whether there are
Goemcars protesting on the track or not. The choices Goans have are
the following: (a) Jump on the goods (gravy) train and sing Heil, (b)
Move off the track and go somewhere else or (c) stay on the track
in-protest and get crushed.
The last option i.e. (c) is what Nisser is suggesting. Oh yes, there
might be a brilliant eulogy and even a big funeral but after that,
nobody will remember anymore for more than a day or two. Ah Norman
Dantas!
ps: Anybody who believes that other folks come altruistically to help
or liberate you, needs his/her head examined by a sane psychiatrist.
