Not George in Berkeley, Roland in Toronto and Salus in Melbourne. Wake Up you slothful, lazy buggers. Your sussegad has stopped being a virtue after 1961. The next item ( No 3 )George writes; There is no ceiling to the level of corruption in Goa. The govt at all levels - village, panchayat, sarpanch, state govt., state govt. departments, etc. actively work against the interests of Goans, in collusion with the building and mining mafia, many of them non-Goans.🌐🌐🐱🐉😜 NERO FIDDLING WHILE GOA BURNS THIS IS A LIE FROM BEGINNING TO THE END: There were ABSOLUTELY NO FIDDLES in NERO;s Time ,,, The popular myth that "Nero fiddled while Rome burned" is not true—even in the first century CE, Rome was filled with poorly constructed slums that easily caught fire. THe facts are <<<<<On July 18, 64 CE, a fire started in the enormous Circus Maximus stadium in Rome, now the capital of Italy. When the fire was finally extinguished six days later, 10 of Rome’s 14 districts had burned. Ancient historians blamed Rome’s infamous emperor, Nero, for the fire. One historian said Nero was playing the fiddle while his city went up in flames. Other historians say Nero wanted to raze the city so he could build a new palace. Nero himself blamed a rebellious new cult—the Christians. Most modern historians don’t blame Nero for the Great Fire of Rome. Ancient Rome was a city of one million people. A fire in one home could quickly engulf the entire block. >>>>>> Please educate yourself and go to the site *https://www.nationalgeographic.org/thisday/jul18/great-fire-rome/ <https://www.nationalgeographic.org/thisday/jul18/great-fire-rome/>* You still do not want to believe . . In the late Republic the Latin word fides, meaning string, is used by Cicero to designate some stringed instrument. Cicero uses the diminutive form fidicula. Grandolfo says its much more complex, His sources from South Carolina state > <<<<< The *cithara* was derived from the ancient *Assyrian kethara*,*9* <https://penelope.uchicago.edu/Thayer/E/Journals/CJ/42/4/Nero_Fiddled*.html#note9> and was called by Homer kytheris.*10* <https://penelope.uchicago.edu/Thayer/E/Journals/CJ/42/4/Nero_Fiddled*.html#note10> It was a heavy, strongly built instrument with a wooden body, soundboard, and arms. It was the instrument of the professional musician. The *lyre* was often made of tortoise shell, a skin soundboard, and arms of animal horns. both instruments are shown with a varying number of strings, ranging from four to seven.>>>>> DISPORA GOANS Enlighten Yourselves ...read *Mary Francis Gyles0 <https://penelope.uchicago.edu/Thayer/E/Journals/CJ/42/4/Nero_Fiddled*.html#note0>* *https://penelope.uchicago.edu/Thayer/E/Journals/CJ/42/4/Nero_Fiddled*.html <https://penelope.uchicago.edu/Thayer/E/Journals/CJ/42/4/Nero_Fiddled*.html>* Next Post from Grandolfo : STRATEGY To PRESERVE IDYLLIC GOA Be sage, wear a Mask, a shield or even a diving suit with Oxygen supply
