... and this is correct. On the other hand, I'm very
happy for others to contribute stories and impressions
and reminiscences from those years. The stories collected
by Lithuanian teenagers from their grand-parents are good
examples of this.
> Tom - Am I wrong about the purpose of the list? If so, I need to unsubsribe.
No. But I take Ed Behrendt's point about censorship; I
don't want to exclude contributions because I disagree
with them. At the same time I think that we will run
into serious problems with the project if we start to
submit messages based on the idea of BLAME and ACCUSATION.
The project is about the effects of war on civilians, and
suggestions that we should test atomic weapons by dropping
them on Berlin are entirely out of order.
