Remember when RootsWeb took over the message boards, and the original hosts were required to re-apply to keep the boards, or they would be put up for adoption? I never re-applied for a single one, but am now finding out that I am still listed as administrator on several (Virginia Crilley alerted me awhile back that I was listed as administrator of the Gwinnett board, and I didn't remember ever having that board). Guess nobody else was beating down the doors to administrate? I guess I'd better find out which boards still list me as the contact, because some date back to 1998! :-) Thanks for the alert!
