This is GREAT!  I was overhearing people talk about scanning various
documents electronically using the new image viewers and know how, like
myself, would love to see more documents available for electronic
viewing rather than microfilm.  One in particular, the state death
certificates which are heavily used and some in so bad of shape on film
are nearly impossible to read - especially the name index reels - or
should I say for older eyes.
