    3. Off topic but relevant to those sending in links to useful sites and hope the list administrators don't mind. How many times have you found a website that you think would benefit others, only to find that when you print the extremely long URL (address) it comes up broken due to Rootswebs system or your email programme cannot get it all in on one line? If that is the case then go to http://tinyurl.com/ and copy and paste in the URL An example of this is for our Netheravon page the url is http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~villages/wiltshire/netheravon.h tm But using Tiny URL we get the format below http://tinyurl.com/yvqjr In fact the text would be half the size but as this is in plain text then it has been changed.
