I agree, Brent, even though some strict rules would be in order.  I know many folks who will NEVER have an opportunity to visit the Library by reason of age or lack of financial means.  Paul Drake        --

  Mr. Tarter,

  I would like you to reconsider your decision to ask Mr. Murray not to post
  when he has research time available. This is a valuable service for many of
  us not able to visit LVA ourselves. The messages are always short and only
  list the time available. No mention of rates for services has ever been
  mentioned. That is handled privately. In the past, on this site and other,
  researchers have written the list asking for researchers in a particular
  area. While some people volunteer their time and only change actual expenses
  that occur, this is certainly not always the case. I don't see how it is
  offensive to have a fellow listmember offer his services.
