Messages in the In-box

I often receive questions in email or from the Contact Dick Eastman link on this newsletter's web site. Many of the questions are not related to recent newsletter articles but are related to genealogy or to the use of computers. While I try to answer them privately, I have often thought, "Perhaps I should share the answer with other newsletter readers." I have decided to do just that.

Starting now, I have created a new category: From the In-box. I expect to post occasional short articles that answer questions asked someplace else. In some cases, I can answer the question asked and will share the answer. In other cases, I don't know the answer and will post the question online in hopes that some other newsletter reader can answer it. If you can answer a question or add supplemental information to an existing answer, please post your words in the comments section immediately below the article.

I do expect the From the In-box articles to appear randomly as questions are received, not on any defined schedule.
