Hi, There's been some confusion about how to write to the list. I use the email address degruylist@rootsweb.com to post my messages to the list. If I have sent a message and you just hit "reply" there is a chance that only I will receive your reply-message. If you want your message to go to the whole list... then degruy-l@rootsweb.com has to appear in the address window. Hope that helps.
