George and rootsweb: One thing I noticed is that they started numbering the issues beginning with 1 again (ex: Volume 1). When we use these as sources how is someone to differentiate between the old numbering scheme ex: TNLINCOL-D Digest Vol 1 #2 and this new scheme ex: TNLINCOL Digest, Vol 1, Issue 2??? I actually think this is the third time rootsweb has started over on the volume numbers. Sourcing is so very important in genealogy, I can't believe they would purposely cause this type of confusion. Isn't there some other way of numbering these - or a different prefix to use? Diane Casey
Diane, The only idea that comes to mind is to use (series 2) to distinguish between the new digest numbering and the old.
