[ALST-L] Balkans list

[Nita Luci]

Hi,

Thanks for you comments. I just found out about this list so I don't really 
have an oppinion. To me it sounded interesting thus I passed the message to 
you.
But what I did do afterwards is read the old messages on their bulletin. 
It's interesting to see who is involved in the list and their oppinions...I 
wouldn't like to make gross generalizations but it seemed, to me at least, 
that the viewpoints were of a mainstream 'opposition'-especially those 
pertaining to Yugoslavia. Which got me interested in the dynamics of such a 
group and what issues if you like they find important. (don't misread the 
'they').
Mabey you have more to say about this. I would be very interested.
Thanks,
Nita
