of asking for help and deleting the thread before people have finished researching? |

Dunno, Laird. I often wonder about the people who post, who are desperate and have searched everywhere, and you reply with the info they want and then their thread drops off the board, never to be retrieved. nell |

Asking for an 1861 lookup for an unusual christian name, with no fundamental facts. Dribbling out further facts when questioned, but not as an answer - as an update to the unstructured original post. Ignoring obviously correct research. Bleating when upper case is used for emphasis. Then deleting the whole lot before more research can be posted ? |

Laird Don't get teed off. Put it down to experience. There are plenty of other people who are grateful and appreciative. :-) nell |

Laird I am sure Moriatys must be opening soon. I think the keys are left under the deerstalker. Pop in and pour yourself something. I'm sure the landlord won't mind. |
