Re: [environment] Re: "pro-nukers" on UNPLUGSALEM
Hi Jim,
So there was a point in sending this to every list in the world? Even after I
was nice and urged folks to join know_nukes? ;-) I've replied to you privately
on this matter. Basic point is that unplug is a moderated discussion list that
focuses on salem 1/2, and that the wishes and concernss of our list members have
to be respected. Sorry to bother you all.
