I am about to decide I need to move across the water to your beautiful part of the world. That is if I would not be met with the possibility of being "tarred and feathered" by some I have rubbed the wrong way. :) The discussions here bring back fond memories of when Rootsweb hosted such discussion groups as "Stamp Collecting" and "Golf" just to mention a couple. I am so happy to discover that there is at least one discussion group where interests other than genealogy may be discussed. My ignorance of this fact led to my original response to what I saw when I was granted the honor of administering Orcadia. It will take some pretty rough verbiage for me to even consider doing anything other than just entering into the discussion. And by the way, not all Americans blame BP entirely for the tragedy in the Gulf. Our government shares part of the blame for not enforcing certain standards that seem to have been overlooked and for not being more aware of the overall situation before the explosion. I also feel that certain government agencies here could be doing more to help solve the problem rather than pointing fingers of blame.

Fit and healthy as ever and still dashing around doing things for himself and others. Must be in our genes, Charles, as our great grandmothers were sisters. Does that mean we shall both still be trundling along well into our 90s????
