According to Dick Eastman's latest (May 8) Online Genealogy Newsletter...

<<Ed Foster writes a column called "The Gripe Line WebLog" that is published
on the prestigious InfoWorld web site... His latest column takes aim at the
business practices of the largest commercial genealogy web site:
MyFamily.com, the owner of Ancestry.com, Genealogy.com and
FamilyTreeMaker.com.... You can read Ed Foster's complete article at
http://weblog.infoworld.com/foster/2005/05/06.html>>;

Foster focuses on MyFamily.com's credit card practices but his story ends
with a reader's comments on the results that came up when she entered "a
word meaning canine excrement."
