[or-roots] chat

[ViolaRae]

I like the 'chat'. Surprisingly I have located very valuable information
from the 'chatting'.  Many times "Just the facts . . ." doesn't tell the
entire story and you are missing the little tidbit that clears up the
puzzle! And I like hearing from friends that have been online since the
mid-nineties and are now working genealogy back east or overseas.  It let's
us know how they are doing and sometimes they are able to clear up a puzzle!
KEEP THE CHATTING COMING! It brightens my day.

I respect those things, but as it was mentioned, if a subject line says < 
chat> they can just skip it. There is not all that much sticky work stuff to

keep people posting any how I did learn a lot of info during these chats and

if it is a problem to chat here, I do have a list called ( Justchatting) <G>

its dead ;( no one chats, I think its is partly because when there are so 
many people on one list they dont want to have to join another list just to 
chat, they want to meet and chat with those like here to learn more about 
the folks and the country land, weather, people and towns. So I made the 
chat subject line so as not to bother the ( facts ) folks while we got a 
little chatty, should have made us friendly, sorry to have got a miss guided

missile going here.
   I will curb my chatty inquisitions and my modern pioneer experiences.
