Hi Edwin and Carmo How interesting! Re the reply below, Mario pointedly indicates that, he is keen to be knowledgeable about and inclined to disclose and comment on other people's credentials/occupations, on their behalf, rather than let them do so for themselves. This point also comes through in some of his previous posts which I have invariably read with an eagle eye!
However, Goanet archives will faithfully indicate that, Mario has studiously avoided providing requested details about his own credentials and occupation(s). The requests for such info arose relatively recently when independent Goanetters on different occasions, and with reminders, requested to know what Mario did for a living and how come he seemingly knows everything under the sun and is always ready, as though in bounden duty, to correct and critique anything and everything anyone else writes on Goanet. Also, linked to the above, was the intriguing question--- how come he is, also seemingly, an outstandingly great thinker/philosopher? Let us for now please ignore any possible, but unintended, traces of sarcasm in the above questions. However, these are the questions posed by interested Goanetters and they, like me, are still waiting for replies/answers. Of course, we do know at least a tiny amount about the great man's credentials and sporting interests in his youth from perhaps some unintended slippage in his posts. But it would be ever so helpful to be absolutely accurate on this important issue, in the interests of fairness to the many who have been at the receiving end of Mario's attention and criticism. Clearly, we need to hear from the horse's mouth directly, and much more than the little that is known, in the same spirit as Mario's displayed propensity to tell us about others. Wouldn't you both, and Mervyn, Roland, Bosco, Selma, Miguel, Aristo, Francis, Kevin, Santosh, George, Fred, Jose and many others agree with me? Hopefully, it will not be necessary to repeat, yet again, the request herein, re Mario's credentials and current/past occupational profile in order to humbly make some sense of the seeming manifestation of sheer 'brilliance' in someone Goanet is perhaps rather lucky to have as an active member!
