RE: orion-list The DSS at Ben Gurion, and the Orion List

[Geoff Hudson]

I would really love to hear Lawrence Schiffman but time and distance does
not permit.  In this electronic age there is the capability to  compensate
for the impossibility of being in two places at the same time.

I think that the Orion site will be missed by a number of people who have
used it more than me.  Perhaps the owners would reconsider their decision.
At a difficult time politically for Israel, it is surely important to
maintain links however small with the outside world.  Issues of "flaming"
are secondary, and have not been a big problem here.  Does the ANE have too
wide a scope?  There is plenty remaining that could be discussed, for
example the Scrolls version of the OT.
