Thanks Denise and very well said. Carol's contributions to the research of others is indeed very generous. I am amazed at the volumes that are contributed daily to this county. I subscribe to many and note the St Joseph is by far the busiest, "most productive". I will go to digest on all of my list due to the volume, I actually like the digest format. Carol keep up the good work and please never give up. I have seen some counties use the scan and convert technology that allows an obit to be scanned, then converted into an electronic character file, like what we see now that can be posted which may save on your flying fingers. I think I have seen where the gen society and library teamed up to buy the required equipment. Denise; I wonder as administrator if you can just move everyone to digest mode and contact those that have left and send them some digests as examples. It is a same to loose valuable contributors because of an utility change. My two cents John DeVinney Memphis, TN
