Dorothy, it's an AOL thing.? A lot of us who use AOL wind up with these strange question marks in our outbound eMails that we don't type.? -----Original Message----- From: Dorothy McCarns <dlmccarns@sbcglobal.net> To: wvcabell@rootsweb.com Sent: Sun, 4 May 2008 8:37 pm Subject: Re: [WVCABELL] First name spelling question Please explain the use of all the question marks (?).

Sorry to mention it but I didn't think anyone would purposely put all thos marks in thier e-mail. It is veryconfusing (for me) to read the e-mail. Now I can just ignore them instead of trying to figure out if the statement is a fact or not. Thanks so much for explaining.
