Article-I.D.: uvacs.555 Posted: Tue Mar 29 13:25:56 1983 Received: Wed Mar 30 06:29:32 1983 Let me state right off the bat that I am NOT a NAZI! I'm NOT EVEN ANTI-SEMITIC! Some will assume, due to my question, that I am one of the above. This is just not true. I just want to find something out. Where does the celebrated "6,000,000 Jews were slaughtered in WWII" figure come from. I have not seen this on the net, or anywhere else for that matter. Does anyone know of a reliable source for this figure? It seems to be one of the "Oh, everyone knows that, it's common knowledge," type statements. I'd like a source. PLEASE respond by electronic mail. I don't want to see a deluge of "Oh, everyone knows that," responses on the net. If you want to flame me on the net, that's another matter. I will read responses that are 10 lines or fewer long (on my 80 character wide terminal). I will summarize reasonable responses (without reference to respondents' identities) to the net in a few weeks or so. Once again, please don't get the JDL out after me. joe wilson uucp: ...decvax!duke!mcnc!ncsu!uvacs!jnw CSnet: jnw@uvacs Arpa: jnw.uvacs@udel-relay
