Well said Foxmax , Carey and Allwyn - for once there are guys out there who have a bit of humour left ! Now regarding the garbage Carey its not only in the Mid.East but all over the world that garbage is never a problem except in our dear old Goa !
Instead of doing shadow boxing and fighting the mobile tower how about meeting up and talking across the table one to one and resolve the issue ? Actually this should have been done in the initial stages and not allowing it to fester upto a point when the poor blokes invest and then we all tear down the structure !! Now the only solution I can think of suggesting to you guys is to shift the tower to a different location ( my friend D.Pereira can help you with this ) and maybe convert the new structure into some kind of lucrative tourist venture like the Goan Effel Tower with maybe a nice restaurant ( rotating type ) at the top !! Hey M &M save some of your breath and strength dear to take on the culprits discharging and burning sewage and garbage all over Goa Remember plastic pollution ( Burning of hazardous waste in public areas ) is more dangerous and lifethreatening only next to radiation !!
