Sherlock Holmes? Scarlett O'Hara? Winnie the Pooh? Other characters? :) http://www.answerbag.com/q_view/803053 2) In "Genealogy" category: Can you name and tell the life story of your 2 parents? Your 4 grandparents? How about each of your 8 great-grandparents? Just wondering .. how much most of us know about the lives of those 14 individuals who came before us on our family tree. :) http://www.answerbag.com/q_view/803564 FIRST ANSWER POSTED AT AB Question was: "What's your favorite genealogy website? (My family tree is planted at geni.com)" My Answer was: http://www.answerbag.com/a_view/3235265 --- (More to come later .. maybe listed by themes or categories) (Also to come ... some favorite ANSWERS posted at AB) NEXT GOAL: A website and blog - designed - planned - created - up and running! And now, AB too! And on that note, take a look at this to see where I'm coming from:  COAT - Cooperative Of Anti Trolls - Showing trolls the meaning of the word "backfire!" If you wish to become a COAT, just let one of us know. The Coats' peaceful mission is to help warm Answerbag with positivity and friendship. We do this by trying to help others that have been trolled* to regain lost points and by offering other support to ABers such as a kind word or an ear to listen. We are not here to manipulate the points system; this is not our purpose. We are not a group that has come together to bring one another AB status and fame. We very often act anonymously, quietly slipping in to replace lost points while we continue enjoying the questions, answers and conversation that brought us here. We, as a group, do not engage in downrate missions even on trolls; we believe this to be counter productive of our peaceful mission to spread positivity and friendship. *Trolling is defined by us as multiple downrates on a single person by usually a single person for no apparent reason other than hate, spite or just meanness. Downrates on one or two questions/answers for a possible legitimate reason does not constitute trolling. Help keep the troll population down . . . On of our keys in dealing with trolls is advising everyone that is attacked not to say anything at all about it on site. First, inform AB admin or a CL, then, just drop a Coat an email and we generally set project backfire into action silently. We do this because trolls thrive off of the trouble that they can stir up; the more they can stir up, the more they will troll, so we try not to give them the satisfaction. This way, they don't get their kicks, get frustrated and try picking on someone else or going off the site completely. |
