Not all of us would agree with this idea of a passive website. There are
those who actually can only access EMail and not the web itself which means
they would not get the information. There are others who would not know it
was available unless they kept the message that said "I have all the names
on my web site." Not many of us keep that many messages and would have to
remember that we kept it and where we put it.. In addition, this is a
Genealogy List this is where names go.
I have seen people post their whole line page after page scrolls across the
screen, that is why we signed up on genealogy lists so we can see
genealogies and maybe just perhaps find someone we are looking for, or be
able to help someone else.
