wELL, WELL,WELL ! ! I have looked in absolute amazement at the time and effort that has gone into chastising this person. He/she asks the question if some of us haven't accidentally sent something to a "LIST" instead of their individual email list . WELL---I did. It concerned a virus----that was real- and I got some of the most hateful, vindictive, ugly e-mails that anyone could have gotten. You must understand that I felt that is they didn't want to read it they could exercise DELETE. I had a LOT of information that I could have shared with several of the people. I had made a break through. I got the direct e-mail address' of those I wished to stay in touch with and quit the list. This had gone on for days. I felt battered and misused for an honest mistake that I had immediately apologized for but it made no difference. Can't everyone please accept the apology sent with the explanation of what happened and lets use our time for the task of finding our ancestors. I'll bet they'd get a laugh about this. I have but I'm sure the poor person that made the mistake feels 'bruised and battered' right now. Forget it. I've taken up too much research space already. C.
