Pleeeeeeeeeese people read who writes what!!! I am NOT the one who said "let it rest".......................I'm the one who said when you say that, it just creates more interest! Do not direct these notes to me. I do not appreciate being scolded for something I DID NOT say.

MAYBE i missed part of this string, but are we having the Allen Tragedy, all over again, and WHO said anything about the Jeb Stuart the King of England, (Whom i am related to???) MY what short tempered messages written to one another on this list. I can't believe my eyes sometimes. YOU ALL SHOULD read what you write sometimes before you hit the send button, and expose others to your ignorance. Rena
