[Reader-list] On the record

[Yazad Jal]

Many fascinating articles are posted here on the Sarai Reader List. I have a
small request. Could those who post articles, also post the URL of the
piece? This piece for example has endnotes which are not in the email. If
the URL was posted, I could check it myself.

Thank you.
