I just need an IDEA of what WE as a list CAN and WILL do for the Madison Co., webpage to be built up. ***** >[mail to me in private so as not to clog up the mailing list.] This is not >clutter what you are asking for and the listers will not be able to thank the >contributor for a good post to the list as sharing is done.

It makes for good friends in cyber space on lists. *****Yes, it is clutter to the mailing list at THIS time. I'm just trying to find out what resources are out there from others for the Madison Co., webpage. When this matter is finished, I WILL be posting to THE webpage ALL the information sent to me and then some. I my self have offered as has my local Historical Soc., to post several items, be them personal or other. I'm NOT here to take way from the mailing list BUT, to add to the webpage for Madison Co., IN.. ***** >Some may feel I am out of line, so be it. I am a member of many good lists >that work the above way and we have fun. ONe list has made Sun of topic day >and it is >not crowded with posts but the posts are fun to see and read. >Now I will climb off my soap box and wait for the ax to fall and my name to >be expelled from the list. Beej in AZ > *****Yes, I do feel your out of line here. I've NEVER heard you say things like this before on any list WE have been on together...and I think we have been on a few. Just (as they say) hold on to your horses and you'll get your turn. Altho, I really don't remember YOU sending me any resources YET. I have a folder for all the resources listed in the mailings I'm getting for the webpage and I have them all saved there so I know where they are WHEN I'm ready to POST them to the WEBPAGE. At this time, as I'm sure most people know, I can't just go into the webpage and ADD things to it. There are things that have to be done first before I can take it over and post. I'm talking about the webpage here and your talking about the mailing list...these are two different things. ***** >PS As Paul Harvey says 'The rest of the story" I can not get to IN to see, >do, and go the libraries, online is how I do this. When I visit IN I go to >yard sales and buy old things that are junk to you but to me it belonged to >someones ancestor and I will charish it as it had been one of my ancestors >belongings. One of my charished belongings is a hand huen rolling pin from a >yard sale in Ligionier, IN and paid the humgus price of $.10 for it. I love >it, my children love it, visitors love it. >Climbing down from soap box #2. > *****We are talking about a genealogy webpage here...NOT a what ever webpage. There IS more than one webpage for Madison Co., IN... I have been to at least 5 in the past...most do NOT have genealogy on them and that is what I'm working on, making the Webpage for Madison Co., IN., BETTER !!!!! ***** >They say don't send something without re reading it.

Beej in AZ > *****Yes, it is a good idea to re-read things, always. :) As I have here too. ***** I hope you have a lovely day to Beej and I also hope you pass by again. Chill out girl and have a great one. God Bless you too. Marcie in IN..
