That's why you have a delete key. I haven't participated in a roll call, but can see how they're quick and efficient for looking for a particular ancestor. When I don't see a name in which I'm interested, I just delete. Quick. Painless. And, others get to try to find an ancestor. We don't have to read anything we don't want to. -----Original Message----- From: Ruth Hinkle Kicklighter <rkickli@phoenix.net> To: COOK-L@rootsweb.com <COOK-L@rootsweb.com> Date: Saturday, March 06, 1999 3:06 PM Subject: Re: [COOK-L] Roll Calls--Ugh I agree Ruths lacy wrote: > Whenever I see roll call mentioned I shudder.
