This is a follow-up to the original posting by Charles Parker.  I am posting 
this on behalf of my brother-in-law Edward Kesich (who does not have access 
to the net).  Please send any replies to my attention via e-mail.

Scepticism is a worthy attribute, especilly in this age of high tech
news management.  in the case of the war in C & B, there is much which
should be taken with a grain of salt.  Unfortunately, the material damage
and human suffering are both all too real.  the so called faked NYTimes
photos from Sarajevo are, in fact, exactly what one would expect from a combat
zone (ie walls of shell struck church are *not* pristine; roof tiles,
which are hung in series, *will* rain down like water when subjected to the
impact of pressure from an explosive blast). however, since those who
have been most affected by the war are unlikely to have pc's, and less likely
still to have network access, it is doubtful that your request for first
person accounts will be successful.  therefore might I suggest that you
arrange to visit the war zone yourself.  after all, to paraphase the
apostle Thomas, "seeing is believing."  Though, admittedly, in a sense,
I'd almost rather you remained a non-believer; I wish I could be.
