Subject: IOUDAIOS
This is just a note to express thanks to Norman Miller for his
gracious words about IOUDAIOS, a few days ago, but also to point out
that since it is not a moderated list, all of its participants must
share in any credit for its success. If I tell you that people like
Bob Kraft are involved, you'll get the picture. Who is like Bob Kraft?
You're right; it was a figure of speech. Many other HUMANISTs also
participate and make it a most worthwhile forum.
Norman accurately perceived a certain "loosening of the reins"
in terms of subject matter. We began with a focus on Philo and
Josephus but quickly realized that these two fellas implicated
us in the whole can of worms that was Judaism in the Graeco-Roman
world. So we pretty much follow our impulses, good and evil, within
that broad field, while retaining our fictional allegiance to P & J.
Membership is around 140; have you thought of joining?

Subject: Eastern Europe lists
I thought some of y'all might be interested in these:
--------------------------------------------------------------
POLAND-L on LISTSERV@UBVM
POLAND-L is a mailing list devoted to the discussion of Polish
culture and events. We are interested in all subjects related
to Poland, Polish Americans and Eastern Europe (related to
Poland).
USSR-L on LISTSERV@INDYCMS
USSR-L (USSR news & information list) is a public discussion
and distribution list dedicated to the dissemination and
analysis of non-classified news and information regarding the
Union of Soviet Socialist Republics and its constituent
republics. It is intended to supplement and complement, rather
than to supersede or compete with, other existing electronic
mail lists, including but not limited to: Disarm-L, Poland-L,
9Nov89-L, et al.
BALT-L on LISTSERV@UBVM
BALT-L is an online forum devoted to communications to, and
about, the Baltic Republics of Lithuania, Latvia and Estonia.
It aims to further networking with those countries, in two
senses of that word: the technical one of establishing the
basic links to permit electronic communications; and the softer
definition of a network of people building up people-to-people
contacts and working together on matters of common interest. A
core aim of this list is to foster practical projects.
SOVNET-L on LISTSERV@INDYCMS
SovNet-L (USSR electronic communication list) is a public
discussion and distribution list dedicated to the dissemination
and exchange of non-classified information regarding electronic
communication to, from and within the Union of Soviet Socialist
Republics and its constituent republics. It is intended to
treat all forms of electronic communication and to include the
Soviet electronic mail discussions begun on RusTeX-L.
