I'm certainly the antithesis of patience and generally not very silent. ;-) >> Well, me too--but I have the WorldConnect file to prove it: Patience HAINES: http://wc.rootsweb.com/cgi-bin/igm.cgi?op=GET&db=joan_m_young&id=I0186 Silence WILLITS: http://wc.rootsweb.com/cgi-bin/igm.cgi?op=GET&db=joan_m_young&id=I0028 And even a Prudence for good measure: http://wc.rootsweb.com/cgi-bin/igm.cgi?op=GET&db=joan_m_young&id=I0116 <<One requirement I would like to see made of posters to a locality board would be to include locality in the subject line. Adding the "Where" is probably the most frequent edit I make to a subject line. When someone posts to an old thread (invariably to a message with a subject like "help me find my ancestors" <eyeroll>), it takes me forever to go back to the original post to make sure it really belonged on that locality list. And it's a 50/50 chance that the post actually did belong there. >> This is another case where I'll sometimes add the locality in the subject if the poster omitted it -- but mainly when I know from reading the message body that the post IS relevant to the board locality. For instance, if someone mentions Callowhill St. on the Philadelphia, PA, board and he didn't mention Philly. I know that Callowhill St. IS in Philly and might add that clarification to the subject--without actually changing any content of the rest of the subject. Joan
