Hi, Missing Lincs, This would be a good time, during the second half of July, to clean off a book shelf or two. Get a box or bag to put your "culls" in, now go through one of your shelves and take every book off the shelf. Blow the dust off of the top and either put the book in the cull bag or put it back on the shelf. If you haven't had it off of the shelf in over 5 years, it should go in the cull bag. Now when you are done with the shelf, decide where to take the cull bag. The local Library might be a good site, or the local (Family) History club, or even the Elder Care home in the nearest real city. I have found that my local elder care facility doesn't care what I read - they put all my books in their collection. But the local Library is far more "politically correct" and "socially sensitive" about what goes into their collections. I sometimes read things written by rebels and outsiders, so I'm probably on some watch lists. Well, I hope they put some of the elders on a watch list. They could use a little scrutiny. Fiona, do not put one of your piles on that empty spot on the bookshelf. We'll get to you later. If you've got a book on the local village's history, but never found any mention of your family, offer it up on this list and let some poor fool overpay you so that they can have the same experience.

I too have been getting Internal Server Error when attempting to browse - over several days. Seems to be common to other lists too.
