[Hi all, please see the message about and, below that, the interestingcontents of the current issue of _Reconstruction, an ejournal. I have no
idea who the movers and shakers are behind it but I would recommend a visit
to the website. John.]
================================================
For those who are interested:
Rachel Bloul has recently posted her translation of Jean Baudrillard's
response to the events of September 11th, 2001 on our message boards
(printed in Le Monde only last week). I urge you all to read
Baudrillard's essay and respond to his survey of the situation.
Please forward this to others who may be interested in such -- this
should provide a wonderful focal point for furthering the discussion of
terrorism and the state of our world.
Best wishes,
Matthew Wolf-Meyer, Editor
