I had a request come in today to post an Amber Alert on the Indiana USGenWeb Project site. This doesn't fit any definition of genealogy research, nor does it seem appropriate.

We won't hurt someone as long as we deal in the past. Richard... Gene Andert wrote: > I had a request come in today to post an Amber Alert on the Indiana > USGenWeb Project site.

It is often very hard to say no to some of the requests that we get, but. . . I agree with Joy, leave that kind of thing to the experts in their field. Leona Gustafson CO ASC
