I have drafted a letter to the BOD of Ellis Island. I know from previous experience with things like these they only way to get them to make changes to the "new and improved" website is to write letters--LOTS of them. If you want a sample copy of the letter, with all BOD names and the address etc please email me OFF LIST at my regular email addy (wrdsrus@aol.com). Make sure you put Ellis Island in the subject line so I don't accidentally delete. It is always best if you personalize your letters a bit, but I have found in the past that people like to have at least a template to copy and re-arrange. If you just want to send a copy of what I have written, that is OK too...the important thing is that they hear from their customer base and how unhappy we are with their new website changes. If you have not gone there yet you really need to...it is a mess...and much more difficult to find people there now than it ever was... The more letters they get the more the impact so share with all the lists you are on and spread the word. You ALWAYS have permission from me to copy any post I write, any letter I write etc and pass info on...that holds true for EVERYTHING not just this Ellis Island thing. I don't care about credit for the things I share with lists...it is more important to me that we all work together and help each other out :-) Joyce -- Researching Stephenson/Stevenson, Fleury, Heald, Lindelof, Young, Rubino, Cammarota, Mandracchia, Vaiarelli, Mulhern, Johnson, Haight, Erickson, Munson, Northrup, Sears, Camp, Gunn, Allen, Gorham, Plumb, Beard, Rogers, Eliot, Briscoe, Bradley, Mix, Wilmot, Pritchard, Mew, Stone, Sparke, Bayley, Bailey, Redfield, Redfin, Howland, Tilley, Sturgis, Hinckley, Kirk, Norton, Gerard, and many more...
