Apologies for the multiple postings, y'all! It seems the rootsweb server has begun guillotining anything that looks like a signature or tack-on advertisement using dashed lines. So DON'T separate your generations with (single) dashed lines. (nice of rootsweb to tell me. Unfortunately, it appears JUNO has switched to using underline chars to mark their tack-on Ads. This means that now us posters have control! I can eliminate the tack-on Ads when I post to rootsweb, by putting a dashed line at the end of my post. Hurray!! I hate Ads attached to my email!)
