    Here is a very interesting article on exactly why something like this
    needs to be created....

    It would particularly interesting if source documents
    (unedited) could be housed on the event, as well as
    biased broadcasts....

    anyway, matus I just caught ur last post :)
    re: waiting extremely busy.., so I'll wait
    until u free up :) But I really think something
    like this needs to set up, if nothing else, as
    a straight up reference to events.

    >I have proposed many times on this list a group effort to form a
    empirical and scientific account of historical events, as unbiased as
    possible. As I have stated many times, there are so many people of
    different political interpretations that we are sure to get to an
    accurate and reasonable account of what transpired. No one has ever
    taken me up on the offer, but no problem, its in the works.

    Matus, I'm particularly interested in something to this effect;
    What, precisely, did you (or do you) have in mind? Respond offlist if
    you like, or onlist if you prefer.
