Just brainstorming again..(sprained my ankle and am housebound/computer bound)..if you decide to do the alphabet research ...and instead of by state, how about time periods... Given Name starting with "A" living during 1600-1700 (give or take a year or so) then "A" living during 1700-1800, etc. Ok..will let you decide. Susan
That awful, dirty, sordid etc word Housebound is a terrible word to use so early in the day <VBG> Yes i am house bound so know exactly every ones feelings on it. A short story to follow. You see my only living sibling is a 60 year old mentally handi capped young lady and still believes in santa and the easter bunny. So every year i am easter bunny and santa. Well this year!!! We have solid mud and water for over 50 to 75 feet in length. Ca 40 feet wide. Now my grandson who is in a band will be playing this week end. Wanted to go!!! Wedding shower for a niece ca 65 miles away. Wanted to go. Then easter. Had to call my daughters and cancel easter dinner here. No way to get my sister thru the water!! Talk to my Lord many times a day as i have not had a cigarette will be 4 weeks monday coming up!! Am so proud of my self but want to cry or what ever because i cannot get out. Plus my drive way is nine tenths of a mile long. Do not know if i put that right. Almost a mile long drive way. Also on tues nite the big big error sign came up. Tried to ignore but it wouldnt. So finally had to click close. Have done it before and no problems. But this time WOW!! Took me two days to get my desk top and windows back on as my mind is getting old and i wanted a cigarette so badly. But i done it and without a cigarette to!!! This is not fiction. I repeat this is not fiction!!! So Happy Easter Every One. Thank you. Viola.

Susan: This might be a good idea for some of the letters of the alphabet...I am thinking specifically of "J" right now. :) I don't think we need to do it for some other letters, though. Besides the letter "J", are there any other letters that might bring on a deluge of email, so that we might want to split them up into time periods?
