Hi, is there any way that you all could carry on your email
correspondence without sending out the information to everyone on the
Roots Web list? The plea for help is certainly welcome but once
someone responds, could you please send email to them only?
I hate to give up this list as I've gotten a wonderful response in
the past, but I did not make all of you read all my mail.
Thanks, dpk
