Keeping Spotlight on Genocide Replay

I particularly appreciate the Dec. 17 Danziger cartoon of a well-heeled couple commenting on the film ``Schindler's List'' while oblivious to the news of the raging replay of the Holocaust in Bosnia-Herzegovina.

Several days prior to this cartoon's publication, a Santa-and-Rudolph ``Wishing you a Merry Christmas'' sign was placed in front of my yard installation that presents a Bosnian family mourning a loved one. It declares: ``Stop Genocide, Help Bosnia.''

The message for my family and the community was clear: We were dampening the holidays for our neighbors. Ironically, the suffering of others was inconceivable for some people, or at least inappropriate to contemplate during the holiday season. Barry Reese, Houston
