Re: META: Scope of list (was Final Warning)
OK.. I will focus my comments, questions, editorials, ets.. only on the Korean
War as stated below. If someone should make a comment not regarding the Korean
War I will not respond to this group.
If I should respond my comments will be taken off this listserver and will
respond directly to that person.
