Subject: emergency message from Mexico: please, diffuse it as much as
possible
From: [email protected] (Chuck Goodwin)
Subject: Massacre in Chiapas
>
 >We've just recevied an emergency call from friends in Mexico. They tell us
 >that the Mexican army has surrounded the city of San Cristobal in Chiapas,
 >and that the hospital in the nearby city of Comitan is flooded with
 >casualties. The press is being excluded from the area. The people being
 >attacked are the Mayan Indians, and other poor farmers, who've been denied
 >land and food since the conquest.
 >
 >They've asked that we try to get word about this out via email. While we
 >have no further information beyond this one call I ask you to pass this
 >message on, or tell anyone you think relevant via any means so that this
 >does not occur in silence.
