GL responds: Crystal ball gazing is looking into the crystal ball for the future. What you are describing and what is going on is "Navel Gazing" The forum that gets the first prize for this "Navel Gazing" activity is Goanet. It is sad that is the best we can achieve. Regards, GL

Finger pointing season has begun, and it is giving soccer fans cause for envy as their game is no longer in the spotlight. Who is to blame for the failure of the state, and who gets credit for the success? And, is the record of failure ours and success accidental? Big questions as yet unanswered. The honeymoon, no doubt, has lasted a long, long time. And for this the credit goes to the natural beauty of Goa and the fact Goa had been clean prior to liberation; but it steadily got worse and worse.
