Good morning listers, It seems that yet another nasty virus is going around and it is spoofing our GACOFFEE email address. This email may look like it comes from the mailing list, but it doesn't. Rootsweb lists do not accept attachments. That's the first and main clue that is not a real message and may contain a virus. Kay received the email last night and the subject line was Weeeeee! ;))) however there are a number of other subject lines. For more information, please check out the symantec web site at: http://www.symantec.com/avcenter/vinfodb.html If you happen to get a message like this, just delete it. Do not open the attachment! If any of you that are fairly new and have more questions, please contact me privately off the list at [email protected] Take care, melody

For those of you that requested the list of books available from the Satilla Regional Library. Miss Mary Clyde Scott's book should be john, the tanner not jeff, the tanner.
