From: <ALLAGREEN -at- aol.com> Subject: Whitney thoughts Date: Sat, 12 Apr 1997 09:10:15 -0400 (EDT) Kevin (& WRG, which I CC'd after getting Jon Aston's comments): Just a quick note at this time. You might want to consider holding back some of the detailed data on living persons, as they might become the subject of some kind of fraud if their Birthdates, parents names, etc., are to become available to any person exploring the Net. A number of people have limited their information for this reason, as credit card companies may use mother's maiden name or grandmother's birthdate as a telephone identifier. Glad to have your line, and I won't pass on the late material. Please post it to the Whitney maillist if you are willing, as a number of our members try to keep the linkages to other current members in their own full Whitney database. To WRG members: I just bought FoxPro 2.6 for Windows to use for establishing my Whitney "facts" database, and will probably install it Sunday and start learning how to use it. I hope to be able to take advantage of Peg's start on Indexing the VR's and build her work right in with what I am trying to think through and design. The database developer/manager has been here since last Monday, but this is the craziest week of the year for me - my college's Jazz Band, which I direct, is doing it's big annual show last night and tonight, and we have been rehearsing every night this week. Once that is past, I'll have more time again to devote to my real love - genealogy. Best Wishes and Happy Hunting Allan
