But you know this time I feel I must say something. I agree with John Berryman about some of the reasons for folks using all caps. There are more reasons than we can all list. some maybe about eyesight or lack of knowing better, maybe they are newbies in thier searches. But no matter what the reason I am ashamed of the fact that folks are so busy looking at others so called short comings they can't see thier own faults. I am sure none of us have perfect grammer or spelling or whatever as well as I am sure none us are perfect period. So since we ourselves are not perfect how can we sit in judjment of others ? And to say it all you have a delete button don't you ? Or do you have such "unlimited time" on your hands that you can spend it writing critizing and "chastising" letters about others? I always thought we came here to Rootsweb to help others no matter how they wrote thier post. All you are doing in the end is discouraging some from looking for thier roots and long lost family. The best way to say all of this is before you go cleaning someone else's backyard clean your own first. You are no more perfect that they are. There enough said.You are more than welcome to contact me offline whether you agree or disagree I don't want to clutter this wonderful list with this thread any longer. Candi God Bless You Always
