Terry, As a Listowner and the Listowner of the CAN-Manitoba-L Mailing List, I know better and know I should edit some messages before I send them on to the list. I blame my absent-mindedness on a long day at the office, then trying to read through 41 e-mails for the day in 88 degree heat. Today it's 87 degrees! As the Listowner, the CAN-MANITOBA-L Mailing List is for anyone who has a genealogical or historical interest in Manitoba. This includes those announcing their interest in volunteering for genealogical or historical interest activities in Manitoba. There will always be Replies to messages about the same subject on this list. That's what the list is about, corresponding, sharing and helping each other. As the Listowner, I will decide if the subject is inappropriate. If the subject is inappropriate, I will warn the distributor of the message and if necessary, remove them from the list.
