Tom Piercy - If I have misunderstood your comments - I apologize for it - but if my understanding is correct, then I wish to tell you how INAPPROPRIATE your comments were to me. I for one found A.J.'s comments very welcome and appropriate. My ancestors fought in wars - that's research worthy - and those that are fighting today. YES, today is set aside to give tribute. Delete it and move on if you don't like it. We have freedom today to research records and such, due to those who are willing to stand up. And that comment "It would be a shame to lose genuine PATE researchers because of political spam"; I don't even see where that fits in. I apologize to the others on this List for my 'comments that are not eloquent or relevant as a researcher'. God Bless America, Land That I Love; Stand beside Us and Guide us.
