Friends of B-Greek:

I'm forwarding herewith a message I just received from Dr. Noname, upon 
whom I have prevailed to continue with the list after I received a message 
this afternoon to be forwarded to the list explaining that he would not be 
a member. I'm sorry that I precipitated this little crisis myself, and I 
wish that I had not, but I hope all's well that ends well. If Dr. Noname 
has indeed formally unsubscribed, I shall take steps as soon as I dispatch 
this message to put him back on our subscriber list.

The gravity of the situation to which Coptic Christians are exposed in 
Egypt was made clearer to me this morning in talk with one of my own 
students who is reading Greek NT with me in a small tutorial group; he is 
himself a foreign student from Egypt and a Coptic Christian; he told me 
some horror stories about the pressures and perils that his brothers and 
sisters are subject to from the Islamic fundamentalists there.

Once again, then, and I hope with more successful tidings, I welcome Dr. 
Noname to B-Greek.
