Hi Carol; KUDOS to you for hosting the RUSSIA-L!!!!!! I once co-hosted a mail list and I know the work involved. I especially am thankful to hear from you so promptly. I just wrote Tmakiaz of my appreciation while singing the praises of RUSSIA-L and Rootsweb..that goes for you as well. Its exciting to be in on the ground floor of a new list and I look forward to us learning together and of course the way we do that is to share our discoveries so it will be in the archives for future Rooters, right? Happy trails; Patti Waldo Swaim :)
