Hello All, If you live in the Atlanta area, or even if you do not, you probably have heard of, and benefitted from, Ken Thomas' genealogy column in the Atlanta Journal & Constitution. It has run for 26 years, and has been *the* means by which genealogists in the Atlanta area get their genealogy news. At events where participants are asked where they heard about the event, 90 percent consistently cite Ken Thomas' column. The AJC is threatening to cancel the column, citing budget cuts, although the stipend is quite small. The AJC editor has said that, if response is great enough, they will not cut the column. This column is very important to genealogists. *Please* write or call editor Mike Lupo.
