Hi again Lisa, I may be asking stupid questions, but I would just like to know. I am going to break up one of your notes to do this, and delete other parts. "I would like to clarify one point in Bob's message. We did not volunteer, we were asked and voted on by the list to put this data together." How often do you take a vote, and why are there no Volunteers? It sure sounds like you could use them. "We have been bombarded with very nasty emails when there are differences of opinions on lines." If this has been a democratic style, then those people should know what the rules are and they could be stated on the Web Site. "We never agreed to research each line to find out which opinion was correct. These emails prompted some of the lines to be taken off the Project site." .It would make for better relations if these charts were put up and the person's E-mail, so they could squabble between themselves without the rest of us having to put up with their nonsense I think each of the members of the committee who put so much time into this Project, have had their own personal challenges to deal with that we did not anticipate. That type of thing just happens. It's not an excuse, it's just a fact of life. Can people be nominated to the committee or could people volunteer to help. This is a good project, but it looks like more help is needed. There should be others, willing to jump in and fill a space, even once in a while or for a certain term. What about people taking a turn looking after those in their own line? There are many people who don't have a voice, because they don't have a web site, only E-mail. Isn't there some way that could be found to listen to some of those people. I sent in my files a long time ago, but my E-mail address has never gone on this site as a researcher, so I become one of the silent majority. Please don't think I am putting anyone down. I think all of you have done a great job, and Julia has had more than her share of family problems. My heart goes out to her, but who can step in now to help Lisa. I have heard that John has not been well either, so isn't it time for others to put their back to the wheel? How does a person volunteer? Maybe I am a bit slow, or the lack of intelligence is my problem, but I just would like some answers to questions, I know absolutely nothing about. I just don't understand. Hang in there Julia, our thoughts are with you. A Hancock Cousin, Ardath
