World Family Tree CD's have incorrect information also that has been picked
up from earlier disks that were in error.  Some of my material that I submitted
early on has been taken and added to.  I have since found errors in my
original work that I have  corrected.  As a result of this I no longer submit to
World Family Tree which is a part of Family Tree Maker.  Neither do I pass on any
of my whole files to others no matter how much I may trust them.  I only
share limited portions of my work that does not include living people.

The Internet is great, and electronic publishing is great...BUT...you must
watch out for errors and for people who will take complete works of others and
republish it as their own without either gaining permission or verifying the
validity of the other person's work.  The name of the game is BEWARE!!!
