Rhonda,

They didn't say anything about their family in there. They were just
curious about who was in there. Eventually the site will grow. I will
promote it some at the reunion this Aug. Send me some easy way for them to
get on the site so I can forward it to them. I am sure that many more will
go on if I can do that. People are looking for a very easy entry method and
many others just don't know how to get on.

Cousin,

Don B. Shoulders
