<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face="Courier New"><span style='font-size:11.0pt;
font-family:"Courier New"'>I have been getting some comments off of the list
regarding releasing the name of this individual and I would like to expand on
my previous comments. First of all, I know nothing about her but I
believe she may be fairly new to genealogy. If I were to look back on my
beginning years in genealogy I am sure there could be a book written about the mistakes
I made. <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face="Courier New"><span style='font-size:11.0pt;

<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face="Courier New"><span style='font-size:11.0pt;
font-family:"Courier New"'>I have been dealing with her on a one to one basis
and I am sure that if she had an opportunity to throw me off of a bridge she
would be looking for a really high one because I had no intention of backing
down and just going away and let her know it. In turn, I got the results
I needed but I left a very mad and defiant individual. Her logic and
sense of indignation is beyond the scope of understanding when you consider
that in a matter of 6 months she has pirated over 11,000 burial records
complete with information from two web sites.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face="Courier New"><span style='font-size:11.0pt;
font-family:"Courier New"'>Releasing her name would serve no purpose. In
my younger days I might have burned her at the stake but I am older, wiser and
have come to realize that the choices I make today will be the ones I have to
live with tomorrow. I am a big believer in the old adage, Do something
about the things you can fix and let go of the ones you can’t.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face="Courier New"><span style='font-size:11.0pt;
font-family:"Courier New"'>I do not plan on living my life worried about some
rabid genealogist with revenge on her mind. The things I do when I am not
doing genealogy are much more dangerous and ten times more likely to kill me.
My concern now is with Find A Grave and their blatant disregard when this type
of thing is reported. That is where we should all be focused because if
it wasn’t for their policies there would be no problem in the first
place. I hope you all join with me and focus on them as the issue.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
