    1. [HENSLEY-L] Hensley Web pages
    2. Marty Grant
    3. Hi cousins and fellow Hensley researchers, I hated to do this, but I was forced to rename almost ALL of my Hensley web pages. I was having some problems with my web server, so my web host company "upgraded" me to a new one running Windows 2000 (the old one was running on Unix), and anyway, since the upgrade last week, I've had tons of problems. Most of them have been ironed out, except for one doozy of a problem. Unknown to me, Netscape users were unable to access any of my web pages that ended with "shtml" (which was most of the pages!). Internet Explorer users had no trouble. These same pages worked fine with Netscape before my "upgrade", so I don't know what happened. Anyway, I could not find an easy way to resolve this, so I did the only thing that I could think of, and it took care of the problem. I renamed every page ending in "shtml" so that now it ends in "htm". That means for example, the main Hensley page is no longer at: http://www.martygrant.com/gen/hensley.shtml but is now at: http://www.martygrant.com/gen/hensley.htm This affected about 90% of my pages, so if you have any of my pages in your bookmarks or favorites list, or linked from your own web pages, you should change them whenever you can. I apologize for any inconvenience this might cause. While I'm apologizing, I'll add another one. I have received 100's of Hensley queries over the last several months, and I think that I've answered perhaps 2 of them. I have been in a fairly bad state of mind and health recently, and have not been answering much e-mail, though it continues to pour in. I will attempt to answer all (or most) of these at some future time when I'm able. For those interested, my health is improving, but I'm still laid up in bed most of the time. I lost my job of 8 years (I was laid off the day after my 2nd surgery!). I got another job already, but am only working a couple of hours a day from home, as I'm able. Anyway, enough of my troubles. Also, I have a new search engine on my site that works really well. Though I'm experimenting with another one also, trying to figure out which is better. These are just to search through my pages. If interested, the link for my search engine is at: http://www.martygrant.com/search.htm Again, I apologize for not answering all the Hensley mail I've been receiving. I get thousands of e-mails each month, and the single largest group of those queries are for the Hensley family. It gets overwhelming sometimes, but don't stop, but please be patient with me.
