For the heckuvit I checked the archives and couldn't find the danged
thing original postings either. Weird. Couldn't find them in my
archived e-mail either.

Mike pointed us to the Multinational Monitor site.

Additionally, here's a place where you can read Vandana Shiva's
article from /The Hindu/ 1 May, 1999, on this topic:

http://www.portaec.net/library/food/waterwatch.html

She has a list server called WATERWATCH-L, but DANGED if I can find
it. I'll keep looking till I do...unless one of you kind folks can
help me. :^)

Welcome, Emmy.

peace
