Gee - I thought if you didn't want to read something it was very easy to click - delete. If one gets mad doing that - should you be on the internet at all? Maybe I just found a newer, quicker, more gentler way to read postings. I personally hope that sometime one of those many postings that are sent that have nothing to do with me - will have something I am looking for. I say "Keep the postings coming!!!" and Thanks for each one. > -----Original Message----- > From: Lrjwj@aol.com [SMTP:Lrjwj@aol.com] > Sent: Wednesday, March 08, 2000 1:53 PM > To: ARSCOTT-L@rootsweb.com > Subject: New limits on Queries posted? > > Readers: The following is a nastygram "Jess"(Jlewis@cafes.net) (list > owner?)sent to me for having annoyed his clicking finger and other > sinsibilities,by my method of genealogical posting. > It is followed with my comments to it, so scroll on. > > Please stop making the same "Johnson" query, over and over, on the > Tn-Coffee (and other lists).
