Listmembers: As many of you have pointed out, our list activity has been somewhat down recently. For the most part this has been due to the period we have just been through with holidays and the summertime (and vacations). My first thought was to call for a roll call to generate some activity, but in view of the recent virus problems, I feel that perhaps this isn't the best time. I do encourage any posting that you feel you wish to make, however, please be cautious as to the opening of the responses you recieve as many of these attachments are "mirroring" subject lines we are posting. I DO NOT in any way wish to hamper anyone's efforts in researching their family lines, HOWEVER, I also DON'T wish to "fan the flame" so to speak in this recent virus flare up. Many of you know that these things come and go periodically and will pass in a short time. We go through waves of this now and then. Many of my lists are so rampant with these attachments that I have considered making the lists monitored (messages being filtered through me prior to posting) but that is just so much hassle and I don't want to have to make the decision as to whose posts get made and whose don't, that is unfair to all subscribers. I would however like to make one request: As I accept many items from persons for placement on various websites-- PLEASE, PLEASE send me an email PRIOR to sending whatever attachment you are sending to let me know what it is, ANY WITHOUT THIS WILL BE DELETED WITHOUT READING. I myself am taking the road of deleting all postings with attachments regardless who they are from--for the time being.
