thanks

but I am on a restricted budget

and I have to ask myself what do I get there that I cannot get at another free library
or at the original archives in Kew or Bristol or Gwent or Copenhagen

I am very busy with lists and boards I am an admin for about 25 small ones

I read one or two UK county lists according to my current research
at 2 to 4 hundred postings a month I cannot manage more

see http://helpdesk.rootsweb.com/listadmins/

then I hang out in USENET which is not moderated

anything with genealogy in the title in a language I can read

well actuall archives original MSS is what counts

the rest above are tertiary or worse sources

SoG is mostly secondary sources

but the transport time and expense
prevents daily visits
