I know why; the person who did that would have been eliminated !Keff, the Residence on Vlissengen Road was not Burnham's private property. It is state-owned. As President, Burnham should have moved to State House on Main Street, but he chose to remain in the Residence which Janet Jagan converted to a national art gallery. And she named the thing with as many letters as VLISSENGEN ---CASTELLANI ---- 10 letters each!
I am aware of the ownership of the property, Gilly; I was merely pointing out that Burnham's residence was substantially larger than Jagdeo's homebut no 'adjectives' were used to describe Burnham's.
