HI Bob -

I'm not sure either - but  one quick word of caution.  You said "share."   If 
it is your family linage - put together to post on the geno lists - be 
careful.   My tiny bit of advice is to keep at least the last TWO generations off of 
it.  I was told that the information of anyone born after a certain date 
would not be posted.  Guess what - it was....... and I couldn't get it removed.  
Someone else copied a file I had shared with them, and posted it.  EVERYTHING.  
So, that means birthdates,  mother's maiden names ---- all that stuff that 
could be found and used was there.   Call me paranoid, but in this day and age - 
I don't think that's a good thing.  

I see there are lots of responses - I haven't read them.  Just got home from 
skiing and am too tired to do so tonight   Wanted to pass along my two-cents 
worth quickly though, hopefully before you have posted all your family 
information.  MIdge
