10. You introduce your daughter as your descendant.
9. You've never met any of the people you send e-mail to, even though
you are related.
8. You can recite your lineage back 8 generations, but can't remember
your nephew's name.
7. You have more photographs of dead people than living ones.
6. You have taken a tape recorder and or notebook to a family reunion.

5. You have not only read the latest Gedcom standards, you understand
it.
4. The local genealogy society borrows books from you.
3. The only film you have seen in the last year was the 1880 census
index.
2. More than half of your CD collection is made up of marriage records

or pedigrees.
1. Your elusive ancestors have been spotted in more places than Elvis.
