----- Original Message ----- From: "Ida Skarson McCormick" <idamc@seanet.com> > Everyone should be aware that the Seattle Public Library system will be closed from March 21 through March 27 due to city budget cuts. I try to get there to help you find information on your family. But, a local watch salesman named Tim Eyeman has started these anti-tax initiatives so now Seattle can't afford to run a library, so I can't go there and do free genealogy for people. For local residents, if you voted for these Eyeman initiatives, you may have saved some money, but don't call me to fix your potholes, provide police or fire protection, or your library. OK, the political comment is over... To those that I am helping currently "Poolman", "Newport, WA lookup", "Brendmo", etc, I'll not be able to access some of the info until May. Ron Bestrom
