Steven, Thanks for an excellent suggestion. This is a simple and decisive way to avoid some of this craziness. It cuts out the "junk" mail and let us concentrate on our purpose for posting here. The messages will not be there to aggravate us, or incite further reactions to the inflammatory notes going out in the last few days. It was very simple on EarthLink, just using the "junk" button on the toolbar. Now, I'll just see what pertains to my genealogy research. Thanks Steven! Janell > [Original Message] > From: Steven L.
