Naguesh Bhatcar, I don't believe that the heading is correct. My belief is that Goanet is now a platform for the retired. The youngest person around or the one with the freshest views is Cecil Pinto - and he already has more grey hair than most of us.  I used to wonder why some members would post the same views, year after year, on subjects that the rest of the world had agreed upon and moved on. Then I realised that some members memories are not what they used to be and out of forgetfulness, kept posting on topics that irritate them - microwave towers cause cancer and coconut oil is good for you - are amongst the often repeated contentions. ;-) The other norm here is for some members to post everyday and sometimes more than once a day. At times, it feels that they have given up god and use Goanet like a prayer platform. Lastly, it seems (to me) that there is a dearth of quality posts here. However, once in a while you will get that post that makes one think and at the same time, expands knowledge. Mervyn
