For a bunch of genealogists, who pride themselves on documenting every little detail, we are doing a #&$@^ poor job of documenting our own history. I propose we have a historian (either appointed or elected to document our history. Right now, we only have (roughly) 3.5 years (4.5 (roughly) if you count KYGenWeb). Some of the biggest arguments I have seen on some of the lists is over our history and various persons' recollection of what happened. It will only get worse as some of the founders leave, pass on, or lose their memories.
