Don Fred, on a sound recording note....folks all over are now adding sound to maps online, called sound mapping. Example, the poder ponk-ponk that passes from the front of your house...or the call of the chooris-pau sellers as you near the Axi market.....or the noisy na^al planes (really noisy) if you happen to live in Bogmollo....and if you are in a generous mood, the chatter of baazar aunties at Longuinhos, Margao. Some of the sounds recorded can work as a historical archive; the lazy Goichi bus cleaners with their Ponji-Ponji call will likely disappear very soon.
