I won't pretend to understand what's been going of with rootsweb lists but, for better or worse, I have been made owner of this list and will remain so until Jim sorts out with Rootsweb why they thought it was an orphan. Meanwhile, can we please limit discussion to the GREAT WAR and drop the discussion about list adoption. If you do feel a need to reply to this message, please do so privately rather than to the list. Just carry on as before, Malcolm. -- Malcolm Austen <[email protected]>
