| Content: | My friends and colleagues! Come to your senses before it´s too late! You are destroying the building of our science, which was created by several generations of scientists and engineers. You are not punishing me and my Russian colleagues, but your numerous users who rely on the the highest quality product from our service. I think that discrimination of scientists on the basis of nationality, citizenship, or political views is fascism, and just contradicts American and European laws as I can understand them. Yes, I´m against this war (notice that it´s lasting not 8 days but 8 years!), equally I´m against other wars in other regions initiated by other countries. I think the science should be well distanced from politics, and from double standards so much used by politicians. ”Politicians work for themselves and for their electorate, and scientists work for the whole of humanity. When the mind of a scientist begins to belong to the government, and not to serve the common good, great misfortunes happen, and in the history of science there are there are enough sad episodes associated with this. Therefore, the duty of the scientific community is not to divide, but to consolidate at such moments, we are obliged to make every effort to restore the destroyed bridges between communities, heal the wounds inflicted by political mistakes and catastrophes, we are obliged to unite in order to protect what belongs to everyone and raises man above the destructive instincts of animals - Knowledge.” - Hansjorg Schneider With my best regards and hope that the common sense prevail, Zinovy ------------------------------------------------------ Dr. Zinovy Malkin Pulkovo Observatory Pulkovskoe Sh. 65, St. Petersburg 196140, Russia e-mail: malkin@gaoran.ru, zmalkin@zmalkin.com Phone: +7-(812)-363-7442 Fax: +7-(812)-704-2427 Web: http://www.zmalkin.com |
