Here are a couple quotes; "The Internet has put so many resources at our fingertips that it amazes those of us from the slide rule generation. I can research, record and share the details of my family tree in a fraction of the time I used to spend on digging up information, and without having to leave my home." "Many sites on the Internet allow you to search for data such as Social Security and census records. Search engines now allow you to contact people whom you have been unable to find using old fashioned means." Those quotes come from the free Nov. "Computer User" found at many computer supply stores. The article "Discover Your Roots" by John Farmer makes those claims, and more. Have I missed something? Does he mean I no longer need a library card or a trip to the Federal Archives? Does he also mean we no longer need to search for Cemetery locations? When did all this happen?
