Mike, Well put and very fitting at this time of year. We may tend to think that since most of America is "wired" that there aren't very many more "newbies". But there are. And I think these "last on board", so to speak, include those whom have been most terrified by The Great Cyber. Almost like a roller coaster so rightly so, I think. On the flip side of the coin, these newbies may be very knowledgeable about history, family and genealogy matters. Though newbies frustrate some listers with elementary questions and such, they may also carrying the key to the door smack in the middle of our own brick walls. It could be useful to remember that that as we each take a lesson in humility by looking in Rootsweb archives for our fist 25 or 50 posts <grin>. Cordially, and Happy Holidays to you all! Phil Lindsey
