Does anyone know of an e-group centering on Afro-Americans
and/or blacks in general (Africa, etc.)?

Thank you.

Subject: LitTerms

Do any Humanist list members know anything about a teaching package
called LitTerms, developed by Richard Rust at the University of North Carolina?
I have heard from a colleague that it does many wonderful things, including
providing visual clues to metrical patterns in poetry.
Does anyone know (1) more about the package; (2) how to order it; (3) how to
get in touch with Richard Rust?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Subject: Easter/Passover coincidence

If Easter's origin was during Passover, and the occurrences of the two
holidays is based on a lunar calendar, how do they happen to vary today?
Apologies in advance if this is obvious to everyone but me. And thanks.
