A plea for restraint to Archives & Archivists



I'd like to ask that we make a conscious and deliberate attempt to limit
the amount of political discussion on the list today.
 
It is completely inappropriate for this list to carry messages
concerning the causes, likely participants, needed reprisals and
long-term political effects of yesterday's events.   This is a
multinational list with subscribers from a wide variety of political,
religious, ethnic and cultural backgrounds and there is simply too much
liklihood that any one person's comments will be offensive or
infammatory to other subscribers.
 
There are plenty of other outlets for your concern, opinion, anger
and/or conjecture.
 
Please.
