I assume you are confused with my argument, let me put it plain, I am not against the MOI issue which ever way, I have stated it before and I state it again, I am only asking you not imply that all the Konkanni medium passed are jackasses and the English medium passed are not. Plain and simple and I have explained to you why too. It is facts and not factoids that illustrate the >truth. My response : Of course I am a very confused man - confused by the fact that you are putting words in my my mouth that I have never uttered. Where exactly and in which post have I explicitly stated that those who have/ are studying in the Konkani medium (please note the spelling. It is not Konkanni - that only happens to Konkani medium students who have no sense of spelling English) are JACKASSES? That is your confusion and conclusion. What I have stated explicitly is that marks are inflated. Please tell me they are not and tell me also while you are at it if you have ever been an examiner at the Board Exams. Or is that not a fact - just a factoid? And since when are 'factoids' not 'facts' please remove my confusion here too. Or does does the confusion in meanings come naturally to those who have studied in the Konkani medium?

Since you have plainly stated that I am a 'confused' man, I am well an truly confused to see how a confused person like me can see the logic of your further confusing arguments. In confusion I say your well 'chintun borilam' writing is further confusing a very confused man like me. Let me hope that your very enlightening mail that I am positive will follow further removes the veils of confusion from my mind. And while doing that please explain to my confused mind why PTAs of Diocesan Society of Education schools which are exclusively conducting their primary schools in the Konkani MOI are asking nay DEMANDING a change in the MOI policy to include English as a MOI in the primary sections of their schools to the extent of threatening to keep their wards out of schools in the next term if their demands are not met? Are they confused too or am I hallucinating and getting further confused after my usual two quarters of feni? Please clear my confusion with your very logical non confused 'chintun boroilem uttor - but in the Devnagri medium as prescribed in the Act. (Goanet has made special arrangements for that purpose and henceforth all discussions on GN shall be carried out only in the approved Devnagri and not English in the Roman script) -- Tony de Sa. tonydesa at gmail dot com ^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v
