Hello Carroll,

Glad you have found success with your project.  It's wonderful that 
an important historical resource will be made publicly available.

It strikes me that as we become more an more involved with "digital 
life", our communities seem to move further away.  While many people 
log-on and immediately hop to CNN, Yahoo! or who-knows-what-other 
site, it's the people who take the time to look at their own 
community online, and particularly those who help create those 
virtual reflections of local communities, who humanize the 'net. 
That is in fact the raison d'etre of the Chebucto Community Net.

I'm glad NS-GenWeb could help.   (Is NS-GenWeb the same as  the 
Genealogical Association of N.S., located at 
http://www.chebucto.ns.ca/Recreation/GANS/index.html   or is it 
another group?  If so, could you provide us with the URL?)

Best of luck with the project.
Mark.
