This mail list is currently set so that when anyone hits the reply button it goes directly to the sender and not the list. This is the recommendatin for a list with many many posts and many more people than we have in an effort to reduce some traffic. I have been thinking of changing it so that responses are also sent to the list population to encourage more discussion and also as an archiving tool. All of the messages posted to the list are archived and searchable, so as a query re. Elizabeth Pennington was made, if I change the default, then we all can see the responses and also they will be archived for furture research... My posting regarding Rachel Pennington Beeson is a great example... The LDS records show her as a descendant of Isaac Pennington, yet there has been extensive research efforts by Carrie Beth Lowe that tend to dispute that with what I consider very credible conclusions. By archiving her response, it makes the efforts of her research accessable by others and does not perpetuate the apparent error in the LDS records. Any thoughts or comments?? Based on the responses I get, I will either leave it as it is, or change it so that replies are typically sent to the entire list. So PLEASE send me your thoughts and feel free to post them to the list for open discussion. -- Steve Privett mailto:eqretrodr@earthlink.net http://home.earthlink.net/~eqretrodr/index.html
