Dear Cousins, This letter will probably not show up on this list as it is being policed. I will also send it snailmail to everyone because this is still America in some places and the Federal Government has as yet not censored any of my snailmail. I will also send a cc to our new family site. I will not belong to this site anymore because of the lack of manners of the list owner. He has insulted members of the family needlessly and caused us to join together into a stronger, closer family. Our new list is uncensored, friendly and into genealogy as well as into the bantering that has made us a real family. It always did seem strange to me for a listowner to have no blood ties to his or her list. On the new list we are all cousins with loyalty to each other and we have proved already that we are protective of "our own". The one good thing about belonging to the Bearse-L List is that I have met so many new cousins and friends and I enjoyed it until one of our own got hurt. Hope to banter with the family on our new list. Cousin Elaine
