Fred can call my views and suggestions as "carping", though I have said that Goanet is stable. When I said "uniformity" I mean that a "controversial" post could be bounced aroud among the moderators and, depending on the consensus, could be allowed or rejected. Why is my suggestion that Herman s

Dear Miguel, If by ignorance Manohar Parrikar said Flaviano was a "Catholic" it is not Flaviano's fault. My point is why should the name matter. Hence, why should you "harp" or "carp" on it? Eugene

Dear Miguel, Two quick points: 1: Eugene Correia is to be excused for wanting us believe that he is a journalist. For (as Lisette Saldanha has appropriately proved) a journalist Eugene is NOT. No wonder he did not ascertain all the facts of the case wrt Parrikar, "Catlic' Flaviano and the horribl

Msny of us have had our posts rejected but that does not mean that the moderators are doing a bad job. Maybe they have erred now and then but I do not see an uniform pattern in their job. Perhaps, the non-uniformity is one of the problem. So, for the problem to be addressed in the best possible
