Dear everyone who has responded to this posting,

Although the same message was posted in several newsgroups it was not
"spammed". No automated mailing programs were used nor address collecting
methods. I had tried to locate danish and english-speaking newsgroups where
visitors had shown interest in writing memoirs, genealogy and could use some
help in doing so. Unfortunately I sent the posting to a couple of wrong
newsgroups, a couple of which were belgian or finnish and also two taekwondo
newsgroups! Bummer. So for those of you who feel that this was an intrusion,
I appologize.

Regards

Glen ( glenfresh@get2net.dk )
