Hi Frederick,
Great idea. I would have volunteered to do this for Goanet.
But you know the well-known Goan crabs (skip the names) will claim that I am
not
a historian. And others will insist that I plagiarized the dates and facts from
somewhere; since I was not there when these events occurred. ... duh.
Ani many will INSISTS on REFERENCES.
Naka ree Saiba. Pirachit murree.:=))
