    3. To Fred Finkbiner, et al. I must admit at the outset I had a lot of reservations about the new "Query Forum" pages. My concerns were they would be difficult for the public to use; difficult for a CC to maintain; just difficult in general. I AM GLAD TO REPORT AT THIS WRITING THAT I HAVE DECIDED THAT ALL MY MISGIVINGS AND WORRIES WERE UNFOUNDED! Hooray for Query Forum! The "Query Forum" is providing a means by which a great deal of data can be made available by the sender. For example; I believe a whole bunch of researchers of a family right here in Morgan County will be going completely bonkers when they discover a link in one of the messages taking them to a URL that has an unbelieveable list of links for just one Morgan County Family as well as other locations for that family. And you know the best part -- I didn't have to do a durn thing except--ENJOY & rationalize what a boon the Query Forum is and will continue to be as the data increases. Those Indiana County Coordinators who haven't signed up are missing out on a real good thing -- for them and the world's researchers. I strongly suggest that all the Indiana County Coordinators try the Query Forum. The Query Forum is almost as good as, although not quite, Grandma's yeast rolls; yummy! Also, for your information, I have caused several people to use the Query Forum already. No complaints; thought it was great! The electronic age is here -- today -- use it for all it's worth! [I'm one of those people who didn't want to give up using my Grandparent's Alladin Lamp, sure glad I did!] Sam Cline
