Although one party seems to subscribe to  "politically correct" formats
I'm pleased to see that most of those commenting have generally suggested
interesting subjects with no concern for the political correctness agenda
that has been foisted upon us, probably mostly from academe.   I just
wish that in my school days at the level indicated the teacher had
suggested a look into my ancestry.  So many have died and much has been
lost to me. Even a closer scrutiny of the Central NYS area with its vast
historical lore would have helped me understand more about my heritage.
