[Goanet] Ganpati Bappa Morya! - clarification

[Cecil Pinto]

Please note that the explanation of how the word 'Morya' was
associated with Ganpati Bappa was researched amd written by historian
Teotonio D'Souza and posted on MoiraNet. It was sent to me from there
by a friend and I sent it to Miguel.

The impression may be given that it is original matter researched by
me. It is not. All credit goes to Dr. Teotonio. I have merely
forwarded it.

Cheers!
