It is unfortunate that the dates collide but I also remember that
considerable discussion of those dates occurred here on the OSLIST, and
somehow we all missed the possible conflict. Speaking just for myself, I
didn't have a clue when Genuine Contact was connecting, so if there was
anything like a competition, I missed all that totally. As Lisa points
out -- the Goa dates were set in the window between monsoons and high
season rates. Given the choice between getting wet and blown away or
going bankrupt -- I choose neither. So for me it is On to Goa! --
and we can certainly WIKI our way together.<br><br>
