MM 1. Although the source of the "poem" by Nandkumar Kamat that was posted to me was from the Goa Writers Group list, I extend my apologies to the group and to the moderator, if it was not the original source.
CP: Apology accepted on behalf of Goa Writers group. -------------------- MM 2. Although it is true that, despite several invitations from the moderator which I have on file, I am not a member of the Goa Writers Group (which is not any reflection on the group itself, but merely my choice), it is also true that the moderator, Mr Pinto, has on quite a few occasions forwarded me posts he thought might interest me from this list, which, thanks to gmail's seemingly bottomless capacity, I also have on file. CP: What invitations and perceived transgressions Miss Mascarenhas has on file is of no concern to this issue. I clarified, as moderator, that she was falsely involving Goa Writers in a controversy that was not connected to us, and that she is not a member. She has admitted her mistake. Period. -------------- MM 3. If the rules of the list are different for Mr Pinto than for other members of Goa Writers, that is hardly my concern, but an internal matter. Similarly, if privacy is an issue for the Goa Writers Group, then it is one it will need to sort out internally among the group members, and has nothing really to do with the subject matter of my original post, CP: Exactly. The rules of the group and what privileges and discretionary powers the moderators might have is of no concern to Miss Mascarenhas, or GoaNetters, or anyone who is not a member of the Goa Writers group. We do not need Miss Mascarenhas to tell us how to deal with our matters. She should stick to her own business - whatever that is. Cheers! Cecil ==========
