My sincere apologies to P. O'Connell and the rest of you screen-listers.
I didn't realize what an unfair position I had put you in. I hope
none of this has caused any harm--those who wished to know more but
were aware that, by asking for info, others would associate you with
Nazis or such. I respect the courage it took to write.
Although the biggest reason I failed to include the address is because
I did not have the ad on hand (since I was doing it for a friend), I
must admit that I initially felt uncomfortable, suspicious, accusatory
what not when I first read the request for the address.
To spare others the unfair consequences, I have obtained a copy of the
ad and typed it all out (or at least the best possible email equivalent)
. Again, I am told that:
--David Cole denies the Holocaust ever happened
--the Simon Wisenthal Center (misspelled?) in LA has been track
ing Cole's tactics for some time now
--Yehuda Bauer does exist, BUT HAS NEVER SEEN THE VIDEO
So that, as with anything, take the ad with a grain of salt.
(Do I have qualms that I am just further promoting Cole's business and
alleged misinformation? Yes. But I do hope that this help people real-
ize how sick and twisted thing can get and to again question the author
ity, power, validity of film and other mass media. In this I guess this
is relevant to screen-l.)

If you have seen a similar ad, please send me a response.
