I apologize for replying to rootsweb's L & D list. I was trying to reply to the one that sent the "Faked mail". Sorry some of you thought I was rambling - full of hate - fanatic - misguided and a Bush supporter. I'll be glad to be removed from MADKY lists. I thought I could alert one person on not giving out their personal information. My mistake. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Barbara Terhune" <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Friday, May 05, 2006 4:21 PM Subject: ALERT!
