RootsWeb reports that they have had several problems that may have led to some lost Mail List messages. If copies of messages you posted to BLANCHARD-L in the past several days, have not arrived in your mailbox, please send them again. And BTW, if you forgot to include Index-Lines, please take a few minutes and do it now. Fletch. P.S. As you probably already know, I am not a big fan of "Tag Lines" that many listowners have attached automatically at the end of each message that is distributed to their List members. I look at this, in many cases, as unnecessary waste of our Internet and forest resources <G> and prefer to encourage list members to keep a copy of the List procedures and ground rules in a folder or on their cork board, for reference. I may have to change my thinking and ask RootsWeb to add an "Index-Line Reminder Tag" to each and every message you receive from BLANCHARD-L <another G>. If and when B-L has a Web Page, this will be a great place to post these kinds of things - more about this, soon. F.
