    3. A lot of times I get answers or queries from people in reply to messages that I put on the mailing list. Some of these are very interesting and very informative. I am not the list master, Doug Detling is, but I know that he monitors the list and likes it when we get into discussions about our family. When you want to reply to a message on the list, hit reply all and you will send a message to the list and also to the one who sent the original message. That means one person gets two replies but everyone else gets to enjoy and learn too. You cannot send attachments to the list. Those are blocked to prevent viruses. If you want to copy something from one message to put in your reply, just highlight that part of the message and click on edit and then copy. In the new message click on edit and then paste and viola! the message is there. I know most of you know this but we get new people all the time who are not familiar with these procedures so I try to stay as simple as possible. I can remember the days when I could not copy and paste and had to learn how to do that. Thanks to all the computer experts that answered my questions about the funny email and keeping my genealogy program on a different drive. I learned something new. Thanks also to all those concerned about my family in NC. They are heading back to their jobs now. Of course, they bring their home with them. Neither of them has ever seen the devastation of a storm like that. I expect to get a lot of pictures and awesome comments. Having lived in SD I have seen tornadoes a lot but never a storm as bad as a hurricane. I really enjoyed the information about Stephen Bunker. Gil and I have just been working on the Civil War vets and trying to get as much information as possible in the database. Carol just sent me a neat picture of Stephen Bunker. If anyone else would like it, put a message on the list and perhaps she will send you one. Bette
