To Temur - The TSE list is still alive.
 
Why post it to this list? I don't know - after having read and trying hard
to ignore all the heart-rending news of misery in the Balkan and Kosovo in
particular during the last year, I just sincerely felt I wanted to thank
someone, and these discussion lists are some of my main channels to people
of all nations. Kosovo isn't all that far from here either.
 
It's hardly a political thing - just a thank you. I agree that a list like
this should allow for some space for humanitarian issues as it can widen
thinking and general historical understanding, though extensive political
discussions should perhaps better take place elsewhere.

Drop these careful lines; words are such a drag
Expose the naked idea and let my mind bathe
In its bright image

why limit discussion by creating a rule or understanding against it?  I have
no desire to discuss Kosovo, but if people want to discuss it, why not use
this forum? If they don't, the discussion simply will not fly. Pound talked
about everything under the sun, and Confucius, his sometimes mentor, thought
that rules begat more rules, all of which stopped people from thinking and
acting responsibily.

Daer Arwin,
 
I am with you as far as Cosovo is concerned.
 
I do not get message from the TSE discussion list. Could you tell me if the
list
is still alive?
