Pat -

You and I share the Pricketts and I also post to Wikitree.

I began posting before they allowed inline photos and I have chosen to add
my photos in the photo area which means I can share them between people a
bit easier.

I have also chosen to hand enter my data - which as you say makes it a lot
slower but in doing so I find errors in my database that for one reason or
another I didn't catch before.

But this brings up an interesting question - I choose to footnote my bios -
and for sourcing i can just pull the source within my database with one
problem. Until Legacy I had never seen an html italic done as /i instead of
an i surrounded by carets.  I have to change those which slows things
down.  Can anyone tell me where the /i comes from?
