Michelle, I concur that there is still great value in doing a book. While I like the idea of a cd for the reasons I mentioned, your points for a book are equally valid. Thinking about it more brings to my attention that a book will always have "staying power" long past changing technology. And I for one am still a book hound despite the ease of using the computer for some things. I still enjoy the feel of paper in my hands while reading my pedigree charts and notes... seems to make folks closer. I have to admit I will dig out the paper copies and books as often as I will hit the keyboard - for the same info. So, count me in on both your and Tammy's projects and put me on your reserve lists. Living far from Hamilton Co. and White Co. makes the idea of looking up from my computer to the top shelf and seeing the two books within easy reach even more appealing in my mind's eye. Good luck and thanks to everybody dedicated to making it possible for the rest of us to get a little closer to our "family" - whether by book, cd, or website. Barb
