Response: Rico....have you calculated your carbon footprint appropriately - average of a plane-full of humanoids for 45mins vs average of a bus-full of humanoids for 14-16hrs?? > For long, I used to be a Paulo fan.

Response: I was in Aldona earlier today, I saw a house named after you - Fred. It was larger than George Pinto's house!! > and please do share your experiences in bus travel to and from Goa. Response: Bus travel within Goa - was 'marooned' in Porvorim last night (8:30pm). Walked to the Porvorim 'tankee' and waited 6-7 mins before a mini-bus rolled up. Bus ride to Panjim lasted 15 mins and cost Rs 5/-. Sorry Rico......just a few joists as the year comes to an end.......your serious discussion on bus travel continues..... - Bosco
