Kathleen Burnett posted this on some of her lists recently. I think she
makes a good point, so I am forwarding it to the TXBELL list...

Have a great holiday!

Enthusiasts


Dear List Members,

It is that time of year again when we suddenly will have an influx of
new online genealogy enthusiasts with their holiday gift computers that
are usually newer and faster than what many of the rest of us have.

For a great many of them, it will be their first time online. Some of
them will make mistakes and some may (will) unintentionally do things
and write things that may be irritating to us and against what we have
set up as our list rules. Please take this into consideration in advance
and be helpful to them. If things get out of hand, know that I am
behind the scenes taking care of the problems. Just remember, one of
these new members might hold the clue you have been searching for. Let
us not discourage them before they have a chance to learn how this
works.

I would like also to take this time to wish each of you and yours a
wonderful and safe Holiday Season.

Kathleen Burnett
List Mom
