Hi Sonia, I know the feeling. The same thing happened to me when I heard that the antique livros, books and grunths that lined the walls of the Panaji Goa Medical College library and office building were incinerated when the old building was razed to make room for the new fish market. Hope we can find a way to save some things from our past. Cheers, Santosh _____________________________________________ Do not post admin requests to the list. Goanet mailing list (Goanet@goanet.org)
