Hi folks, If you are reading this you are still on the Scotch Irish list. It like many lists, gets quiet in the summer. Meanwhile, some good news from the homeland of Ulster -- Navan Fort is being re-opened. As many of the people in western Scotland apparently descend from people in Ireland (speaking prehistorically and who knows what the latest DNA expose has uncovered. I speak in good faith <grin>). I really enjoyed Navan Fort when I visited. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/northern_ireland/4075872.stm If you are going on vacation, you may want to unsubscribe as otherwise your emailbox may fill up and then stop accepting emails. You'll miss some stuff you wanted, perhaps. If you get the Digest, read down under the table of contents. There's the directions to unsubscribe. If there's no directions there, you are getting the mail mode. If you get mail (each post is a separate mail), then send email to Scotch-Irish-l-request@rootsweb.com with only the word unsubscribe in it (spelled reasonably close). Then the software unsubs you. It's even stupider than I am, which is why you need to watch the spelling-part. If it can't unsub you, it'll send an email and tell you what to do next. You must follow its advice as no other humanoid but yourself knows of the problem: ie the software is actually an alien lifeform from Mars and the list admum (ME) hasn't been involved at all and is totally clueless, as usual. So nothing will happen to resolve the problem unless you do what it tells you to do (usually that's forward it to me). Meanwhile if anyone has anything remotely Scotch Irish but serious (to avoid serious squabbles), please let us hear from you. I have been focusing on attempting to complete a Never Ending Project that is not done yet.
