A new study by scientists has suggested that zombie attacks might increase if the current projections of global warming are realized. “If the earth gets warmer, it means longer springs, summers, and falls, and shorter winters,” said John Carpenter-Romero, Ph.D., a zombie-ologist who co-authored the study. “And shorter winters means more time for the undead to prey on the populace.”
Dr. Harrister, the other co-author, and head of Zombie Robotics at Wayward Robot, Inc., explained that cold winters typically stalled the walking dead. “It is well known that zombies can’t operate in cold weather. It freezes their brains.”
The pair calculated a 32.782412% increase in zombie attacks if CO2 increased to twice its pre-industrial rate. “Clearly, this is a very troubling result,” said Dr. Harrister, “If we don’t do something soon, the streets will be filled with blood.”

LOL!!
I have a serious question. Have you ever used Ancestry.com? The only info that I've gotten from them is census records. The interesting stuff comes from US GenWeb and other sites. Of course when I started this in 77 I was sending for birth and death certs and war records. Genealogy has come a long way.

I did, and found some stuff I couldn’t find anywhere else, but I mostly use the LDS site, because they don’t charge for access.

Try this one.

There’s another one, too. As soon as I can find it, I’ll let you know.
Also, you might want to check http://www.ellisisland.org
I don’t know what they charge, but you can get limited info for free.
I’ll check tomorrow and see what else I can find.

That looks pretty sturdy.
Would it be possible to beat someone to death with it?

The youth group from the church brought me a Valentine bouquet, last night.
What a bunch of sweet kids! It was a project for all the widder wimmins in the ward, so I was in good company!

I will...red and white carnations. They were accompanied by two cupcakes, but those somehow disappeared.... ;o]
They are on my desk. And I think I’m allergic to something in the bouquet, as I keep coughing. My bad!
