It is time to call a truce to the slanging match taking place on the internet. This does not bode well and does no one any good. I am sure all parties involved have their own side to prove. Why not all agree to disagree? and get on with it. disparaging remarks are really uncalled for. I know what I am talking about as I too have been the brunt of false accusations. to accuse someone of stealing is to bear false witness - a cardinal sin. especially if it is a third party info. Equally if someone is adveristing their product so what? so long it is not harming anyone else. hope this matter is closed once and for all. best regards Gabe Menezes. Ex President The Union of Navelim London. Ex President The Goan Association England. _________________________________________________________________ MSN Photos is the easiest way to share and print your photos: http://photos.msn.com/support/worldwide.aspx ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 17 Apr 2002 10:59:13 +0500 From: "Joel D'Souza" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: [none] - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Sender: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Precedence: bulk GOACOM NEWS CLIPPINGS 17 APRIL 2002 PARRIKAR DROPS RAUT, DHAVLIKAR SACKED: The BJP in Goa snapped the last chord of its ties with the MGP with Chief Minister, Manohar Parrikar, dropping Transport Minister Pandurang Raut from his cabinet on Tuesday.
