I'd like to pass along a handy link to help people learn how to trim posts. The site refers to Yahoo groups or lists, but is applicable to any group. I'm on the digest form of this list and the last message in the last digest I received had 10-12 replies still tacked on to the end of the message. It is so hard to read and decipher this way folks! I'd like to get quickly to the meat of the message and see if it pertains to any of the families that I'm researching. Trimming posts is quick and easy before you hit the send button helps immensely! http://www.marthas-web.com/trimming-posts.htm
