Third: I am not, have not been, nor care to be the list "Deep Throat.*" [*Try Google.] Fourth: I am not, have not, nor care to offend GGG, IHR, or APG colleagues. Fifth: While Nancy attends to urgent business, I will unofficially play VP here. This post is more like "Everything I Learned, I Learned in Kindergarten."

If someone uses disturbing language, tones, or threats in emails to you, onlist or offlist, and/or appears to be stalking or harrassing you, you can choose: (1) to continually delete; (2) to report them to Rootsweb, their email ISP provider, or the FBI, with copies attached; (3) to report them to your list administrator.
