    3. Lightning hit my computer. i lost a lot of my mail and have only just about caught up on reading almost 2000 messages, I dont know how many bounced. i have been going to the library trying to stay on top of things. I just realised you need my vote on something, here, and i'm not realy sure about the state rights issue . i need a better explanation. as for the ARCHIVES. i think we need to leave things the way they are and not fix things that work. I do however think that the archives situation has improved and has room for a lot of information. I wish we had more good volunteers. I look at Patrick county with all the additional information that has recently been added, and aplaud the people that typed all the census records. and at Rockbridge, that has about the best archives in any county that i'm aware of, then the three volumes of Chalkeys on the Augusta County Archives. Maybe i misunderstand, but i dont see why anyone would not be able to make a connection with all the information provided here. Do we realy think we want to uproot all this information that is in place. AS for the personell at the archives, i have no complaint. Didnt this all start over a link to porn. I voiced my opinion on that then and i still dont believe we have a place for it in the Genealogy archives. States Rights. a definate NO i dont think we should KILL the US GENWEB Project, Recall of Board Members: i dont understand this issue. Rena

    3. Now, I'm confused. Where does it say we are moving the archives? Am I missing something when I read the proposal? What porn? What personnel at the archives? No one had a link to porn. Porn was used as an example. A link to a bakery could have been used but that wouldn't have meant Linda actually meant a bakery and Linda didn't mean porn............it was an example only. The recall proposal is to prevent the NC or anyone else from making decisions without abiding by the by-laws. If he/she should make decisions contrary to by-laws, he/she could be recalled.
