Hey, Mike, how does that guy know if your info affects him or not UNTIL he has read it. I get lots of stuff that doesn't tie in with mine, but it will help someone else - and that may link to someone else... and then loop back to where it connects to me after all. If we all had precisely the same ancestors, we wouldn't be doing this. Didn't that guy's ancestors come from SOMEWHERE? If not, he's all Native American and doesn't belong on the Wolf list. I've had lots of help via various lists (along with recipes and philsophy I could do without), but I say share whatever you have, help somebody in the process, and damn the topedos! I've never replied in any "improper" manner to anyone, but I think your protestor is off-base. Genealogy is what this is about! I probably can't read your GEDCOM with my limited no-how and software, but I certainly would like to!
