Last Friday my wife and I went for a weekend away to San Diego. Talk about bad timing. Our plan was to watch football at an old friends house in Encinitas today and drive home this evening. When the fires kept getting worse we hit the road about 11am and it was a scary ride for the first few hours. The closed hiwy 805 15 min after we used it and Hiwy 8 about 20 min after we passed the fires. Some flames were only 2 blocks away on our left as we snuck through. Anyway, we're home now and I'll see what I can find on Charles STITES on either Tues or Wed and I'll let you know. I agree with you and wish that people that don't have time to do lookups wouldn't volunteer in the first place. But we do have several GOOD volunteers here in AZ that either do this kind of lookup or work on indexes like Obituary Daily Times or other special projects. Jim
