Fred, thanks for the forward.  It is a small world.  Fr. Xavier Pinto and his 
brother, Francis,
were in my OLPS Parish when I grew up in Chembur, Mumbai.  Along with Fr. 
Desmond (Demi) D'Souza
and Fr. Ozzie (all Redemptorists) and in Goa now, they have fought for the 
"little" guys, the
poor, the destitute, the workers.  Fr. Desmond was recently rallying opposition 
to the communal
history video.  Tremendous group of priests, doing social justice work.

Regards,
George
P.S. For the record, the Pinto priests are not related to me.
