I think Frederick learnt a new word today (parasitical) and decided to use it in a sentence even if it makes no sense ;-))
It is a word used these days to hide either resentment against those who help or are in a position to help or attack their causes. Or to keep a false pride by refusing (thanks but no thanks) someone's generosity (the worst kind of generosity of course is from the Goan expat in Frederick's thinking). If Frederick was really serious about this parasitical nonsense, he would apply his logic first to one of his endeavor's, GOA 1556 which publishes books. Is GOA 1566 parasitical on wanna-be authors who long to publish and in their despair are preyed upon to fulfill their urge to be an author? Is GOA 1556 parasitical on buyers of Goa books by satisfying their longing for Goan literature, information? I do not believe GOA 1556 is parasitical but by Frederick's bizarre logic, I think one can make that case.
