What country do you live in.
« on: Thursday 13 January 05 13:29 GMT (UK) »
Hi,
I am finding that in the chat room there are a growing number of members who have nothing in there profiles to indicat what country they live in, and when asked some of them just dont answer.  I know people are very afraid of letting private information out, but come on to let someone know what country you live in is just polite and certainly wouldnt compromise your privacy.  In fact part of the intrique of this chat room is talking to people all over the world with a common enjoyment of genealogy and helping one another.  Knowing what country you are from can and does help others appreciate some of the problems in getting genealogy information that you have and can help or maybe if you have similar problems share in their solutions.

This is just a comment, but I feel my feelings are more common with the group than it may appear.
