Benard, Sunday and Ismail, Thanks for your comments and concern about my response to Pariyo's post about Energy Crisis in West Nile. Since English is not our native language, I believe many of you read and misinterpreted my response as something offensive to Pariyo, for which Sunday suggested I should apologize to Pariyo. I concur with all of you that the forum is a platform where we all learn from one another and share ideas. However, we may disagree on how it is done, to which we all may have different methods of transmitting or sharing knowledge. In this particular case Pariyo provided us with Tesla's theory as a solution to the Power Crisis in West Nile, which I think was a good idea because of his legitimate concern for the power problems we are facing in West Nile. I believe it is Ronald Batre who first commented on Pariyo's post by asking how Pariyo expected to apply that theory to address the power problems we are facing in West Nile. All I expressed was the same view Ronald Batre expressed. I believe if Pariyo was able to suggest Tesla's theory to solve the Power Crisis in West Nile, he must have made the suggestion with a deep understanding of what he is talking about or suggested. At least he should have educated us on how that idea would be applied to solve the problem. When we learn from each other, whoever comes with an idea to help a group of people in need of that idea should be able to explain to the people how the idea can be applied or used to help the situation.
I also think that if someone is able to suggest a solution to a problem, the person should be able to shade some light on the solution he or she has suggested for the problem so that we can all learn from the idea. Copying and Pasting some theory without explaining how the theory is applied, especially, in this particular case of Power Crisis in West Nile in my view defeats the idea of learning at this forum. If Pariyo wanted to suggest we in West Nile should think of Solar Power in addressing the power situation in West Nile, he should have been direct and say so, after all Radio Pacis is already using that technology in a small scale to run their business in Arua. I am sorry to say that I do not see any reason to apologize as suggested by Sunday for my comment, because I did not respond in a negative or harsh context as you have all perceived. Should we also ask Pariyo to apologize for suggesting a solution to West Nile's Power Crisis without giving us the detail or educating us on how the theory is applied to solve the power problem? I thank you all, hope you all have a wonderful weekend Vasco On Fri, Mar 23, 2012 at 5:09 AM, Bernard Vigga <bvi...@yahoo.com> wrote: > To the good people. > > I still believe where there is a platform for sharing information to the > public, the contextual relevance (feasibility and practicality) of such > information toward the topic being discussed is very paramount.
