TO ALL: I want to apologize for Winnette's and my private discussion being on this list. I thought she had orig. posted his initial concerns to the list. She is obviously very upset, much moreso than seems to be appropriate for this type of situation, but people feel as they feel. I think Winnette has unsubbed from this list, which I'm sorry about, but I don't control what others post (such as the pictures etc, which I see no harm in anyway), but I just wanted to say I'm sorry for the inconvenience of these postings and hope we can get back to normal. Thanks for your understanding....

Tina, I do think Winnette has a point about one announcement that new items had been added (maybe an announcement once a week, if there is anything new?) being more appropriate than an announcement for each new item. That said, I wouldn't want to discourage anyone from adding new items, as they are a great and valuable resource, and the more information and data available on the internet instead of at the courthouse or in someone's attic, the better it is for all of us. I'll shut up now.
