Good afternoon. I wanted to give you a heads-up on a story that will be
running this Sunday,Dec. 17 (7PM ET/PT onCBS) on 60 MINUTES about a
long-secret German archive that houses a treasure trove of information on
17.5 million victims of the Holocaust. The archive, located in the German
town of Bad Arolsen, is massive (there are 16 miles of shelving containing
50 million pages of documents) and until recently, was off-limits to the
public. But after the German government agreed earlier this year to open
the archives, CBS News Scott Pelley traveled there with three Jewish
survivors who were able to see their own Holocaust records. Its an
incredibly moving piece, all the more poignant in the wake of this weeks
meeting of Holocaust deniers in Iran. Were trying to get word out about the
story to people who have a special interest in this subject. So we were
hoping youd consider sending out something to your listserve and/or posting
something on your website. Further information will also be available on
our website (
http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/1998/07/08/60minutes/main13502.shtml), which
youre welcome to link to from yours.

Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions, and thanks for
your consideration.

Best,
Robin Sanders
