Fact = Truth
Hint = Clue
On Ancestry.com the shaky leaves are hints
but most of the problems that are featured here on Tuesdays
are the result of people
unquestioningly accepting that shaking leaf as fact.
"God grant me the serenity to accept only the hints I can prove,
ignore the tempting hints I can't,
and the wisdom to know the difference."
(Thanks for that Liz!)
I think these two videos should be required watching for every Ancestry.com subscriber.
No, I did not forget to include the word 'new' ;-)

Christa Cowan always does such a great job on her videos. I wish every Ancestry user would watch that second video!! "Hints are NOT Facts" -- well, really, they ARE facts, but not necessarily facts about YOUR ancestors!

DeleteGood point Marilyn! That made me smile :-) Hadn't thought of it that way before.
