Whoever the writer of this blog may be, I hope I am the only one who is confused by it.
In short, I believe that this rather 'non-brilliant' blog wishes to teach me the following: 1: Bamons and Saraswats are same or different folks, and that Salgaocar and Dr. Sequeira were Bamons. 2: Devanagri is a language. 3: Dr. Sequeira was able to follow (forget read in) the Devanagri script. Honestly, I cannot imagine how more-brilliant Part II will be. IF only the blogger would not complicate the plot by confusing the Saraswats with the folks he calls "BAMONS"; never mind the few eccentric and self-serving "Bamons" (some who don't even have a clue of the Devanagri script) who are jumping around with the "Devanagri Kokni Only" banner. jc Pardon any Typos.
