Does anyone have a functioning address for the 'cogling' list, or has that list gone defunct? I seem to have no current address for it. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Johanna Rubba Assistant Professor, Linguistics ~ English Department, California Polytechnic State University ~ San Luis Obispo, CA 93407 ~ Tel.

For those colleagues who share our concern and would like to become actively involved in the anti-war movement, we would like to pass on the web page and e-mail addresses of the International Action Center, based in New York City. Among other things, the International Action Center procides a clearing house of information on organized demonstrations against the war in Yugoslavia, both in the United States and internationally. The addresses are as follows: International Action Center web page: http://www.iacenter.org International Action Center e-mail: iacenter at iacenter.org For a non-mainstream American view of the war in Yugoslavia, those interested might want to look at the following web site for ZNET, an electronic forum for those concerned with social change and social justice: www.lbbs.org/ZNETTOPnoanimation.html We urge all those able to make contributions to Doctors Without Borders. Since the current crisis began, DWB have been working around the clock in the Balkans, on very limited resources. Their web page is: http://www.doctorswithoutborders.org Their toll-free number in the USA is: 1 - 888-392-0392 Phone and fax numbers in Los Angeles: (310) 277-2793; (310) 277-1667 Phone and fax numbers in NYC: (212) 679-6800; (212) 679-7016 Please help bring peace to the Balkans.

Her email address is at the end of the message, the very bottom. Whatever the complexities of the ethics of the posting, I was merely aiding (abetting??) Linda, who does not have the technology to make postings to Funknet herself at this time. If anyone knows of lists concerned with activism regarding this war, perhaps they could send Linda those addresses or be kind enough to forward her message themselves. Also, I take no partisan position by posting Linda's message. I sure do not have the answer to how to make peace in the Balkans. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Johanna Rubba Assistant Professor, Linguistics ~ English Department, California Polytechnic State University ~ San Luis Obispo, CA 93407 ~ Tel.
