Saligao-Netters are proposing an expat get-together sometime pre-Xmas (when everyone visits), maybe on Dec 22. If you'd be interested, get in touch at [email protected]
* * * Sonarbhat had a bad power problems last night. First the supply kept fluctuating badly (even inverter tripped... this can really hurt computer software). Then two phases went dead. In the morning, lights were off, and then came back around 10 am. After this, the Net was down but it came back. Not before a few phone calls though (not sure if this helped or was just getting repaired anyway). If your power is down, complain to 2409190. For net problems, phone Saligao exchange 2278299 or 2409909. Or Panjim 2423800 or 2434343 or talk to BSNL Internet engineer 2421552 or 9423885645. Whatever happens, don't let them convince you that the fault is at your end only... they sometimes get you to change your modem settings, when actually nothing is wrong there! * * * Someone was complaining that obituary notices can sometimes take time to show up on Saligao-Net... (or, I'd add, sometimes not get reported at all). Please note that this is group venture, the strength of which depends on how much YOU contribute. Unlike the newspapers, which charge to display your advertisements, information here is put out for free. This is a VOLUNTARY network, suistained by the labour of love of those who spend their minutes or hours (sometimes spread over years) to keep it going. We do at times miss noticing something which is relevant to Saligao. At other times, we might be caught up with the task of earning a living, fulfilling family commitments, whatever... We are grateful to people like Alwyn, who has been prompt in sharing such information. If you know of any Saligao-relevant information, PLEASE post it here (or on Googlegroups, or both). If there has been a death in the family, please share the obituary note with full details and we'll put it out. Saligao-Net has space for all Saligao-relevant information. You get the right to complain, when YOU contribute to making this an active and informative place. -- FN +91-832-2409490 or +91-9822122436 [email protected] Books from Goa,1556 http://scr.bi/Goa1556Books Audio recordings (mostly from Goa): http://bit.ly/GoaRecordings -- Saligao-Net is at http://groups.google.com/group/saligao-net To post to this group, send email to [email protected] To unsubscribe email [email protected]
