    3. I apologize in advance for further posting on this toopic - but I think it is important. I usually do NOT get involved in warnings, because they are not germane to the genealogy lists. However, FamilyDiscovery.com has recently spammed an ad for their service, and you should be aware of the implications. Some facts: The site is apparently run by two teenagers. One of them is pictured here: http://gene_olson.tripod.com/Abodeely.html Their site is comprised of information they have mined from other sites, or they simply give links to sites that they don't own. They are selling you information that they don't own. The phone numbers they give in their domain registration are bogus. One goes to a TV Station information line, and one goes to a carpet store. The email addresses on the site are bogus. A gentleman named Gene Olson is working on this very diligently. His URL is listed below. http://gene_olson.tripod.com/ I request that you not flood the Rootsweb lists with comments about this email. If you have any questions, sent them to my email address. If you have had a specific problem with FamilyDiscovery.com - especially if you have paid money and gotten no service, please contact Gene Olson via his web site.
