Hi Ginny, I too find the Gateway heading a nuisance. However, I think perhaps we should give the situation a serious look before completely eliminating them. They frequently provide a trigger for serious discussion regarding some family lines and I think few would bother scanning "the query board." While scrolling down to get to the body of the message is admittedly a nuisance, we may be sacrificing more by eliminating them. Whatever you do will be fine with me. While I've got your attention, I'd like to thank you for hosting the list. We don't often recognize your contribution and when we do it is usually because of some perceived problem. Your efforts on our behalf are truly appreciated. Warmest regards, Jim Groat jgroat1@midsouth.rr.com
