Dear Floriano, Good intentions need the means to translate themselves to reality. And I would never doubt YOUR good intentions.
I can only wish you the best with this good intention at tomorrow's conclave. Only be a wee bit careful about the provisos (*provided!*), if I may offer some unsolicited advice, that is! Regards/Valmiki From: "Floriano" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Wednesday, September 24, 2003 9:17 AM Subject: Re: [Goanet]Rajan Narayan, Herald n Goa Some overseas Goans (who have been past journalists associated with Goan newspapers) had asked me if it was possible to float a fortnightly which would be the cutting edge, I had informed them that I would try to look at the prospects. After having met with some prominent ex-editors and journos, I found that there was none in Goa who would want to be the double edged cutting sword with a true commitment. This, after a pledge by the overseas Goans for a sponsorship of 48 + 48 issues, with SYMPATHETIC 'printing press' services available at cost in Goa. I could have very well said "YES" I will do it, if I was into journalism. But sadly, I had to let it go, for, I have too many things on my hands and I couln't take on this huge responsibility. The same sponsors are happy to go along with the "Independent Goan Observer" PROVIDED! The provided will come up at tomorrow's meeting at the International Centre at 5 p.m. for which I have been invited. ########################################################################## # Send submissions for Goanet to [EMAIL PROTECTED] # # PLEASE remember to stay on-topic (related to Goa), and avoid top-posts # # More details on Goanet at http://joingoanet.shorturl.com/ # # Please keep your discussion/tone polite, to reflect respect to others # ##########################################################################
