Good Evening Everyone, This is an FYI only. Please do NOT discuss this message on the list. Please send any comments you might have to me at the address posted on the bottom of each message to this list. We are about to enter a challenging political time when emotions and opinions will vary in many directions. Political discussions can be painful and divisive in the best of times. Times of stress only increase that concern. In the past, similar political situations have been known to cause significant disturbances on some mail lists. Therefore, RootsWeb staff have asked us to remind everyone that RootsWeb is for genealogical research and not for political discussions. List admins have been directed by RootsWeb to deal with any concerns kindly but quickly and firmly - and that is what I will attempt to do. Therefore, please refrain from any political discussion in either messages and/or signature lines. Let's keep the mail lists a haven for all of us to come to and enjoy our genealogical exchanges. Again, I ask that you not discuss this message or any inappropriate message on the list but contact me privately with any questions or concerns. Thank you so much - Emma
