All the subject matter might be part of the culture or heritage but is not the study of genealogy. Genealogy is simply defined as "1 : an account of the descent of a person, family, or group from an ancestor or from older forms 2 : regular descent of a person,family, or group of organisms from a progenitor or older form : PEDIGREE3 : the study of family pedigrees", so swapping recipes might be history and fun but is certainly not the study of genealogy, or is genealogical research. Other than cluttering up the screen listing incoming E-mails..I personally don't care what you send, but please list in the subject line whether this is a recipe, housebuilding, quiliting or even (gasp) genealogical research, then I won't have to waste my time opening the letter unless I am interested ________________________________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com
