60 Minutes piece on long-secret archive Counterpoint to Iran Holocaust-Denier Convention

Good afternoon. I wanted to give you a heads-up on a story that will be
running this Sunday, Dec. 17 (7PM ET/PT on CBS) 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. It's an
incredibly moving piece, all the more poignant in the wake of this week's
meeting of Holocaust deniers in Iran. We're trying to get word out about
the story to people who have a special interest in this subject. So we
were hoping you'd 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 you're welcome to link to from yours.
