Hello all, Just a reminder that rootsweb does not allow attachments nor anything but plain text on its message boards. Also a reminder that when replying to a message, trim out the previous message to just the part you are replying to. This is for two reasons: (1) it will keep your message within the length limits and stop it from bouncing and (2) for those on digest mode (those who only receive the messages on a daily or even weekly basis do not have read through the same things over and over and over while scrolling through the messages. Last, if you change the subject, remember to change the subject line. This is important for searching the list archives by topic. Have a great day, Craig
