Hello everyone,

Being a new member (since January 1, 2001), I took Stefan's advice and
read through all of the previous messages in order to bring myself
upto date and to avoid going over the same ground. This was VERY
tedious (although interesting). As the number of messages posted
climbs ever higher, new members will find this task quite daunting.

I hope to be an active participant in the group. I am not computer
literate (I can't even open e-mail attachments - don't laugh, this is
embarrassing). My Polish language skills are poor. I will have to help
out in other ways.

I would first like to thank Stefan and his colleagues for producing
and maintaining the site. I have already learned so much.

Thanks for the note, Henry, and for your offer to help out as well as the
useful website links, which we will put on to our website. It is important
to spread the information we have and to help others understand the history.

I am not sure what else we can do about reading all of the messages, except
to say that there is a "search" function on the website so that people can
look for messages with specific items of interest. My next suggestion is
that you visit our website, www.AForgottenOdyssey.com" and follow the links
for further information. Then, get a copy of the film itself, which is in
English and is excellent (if you are in Toronto, group member Wanda Truksa
has a copy).

I hope that we can put on foot a number of "projects" to get people involved
in ways that further their own goals as well. I'm sure that we would like
to have help with specific sections of the website, such as "Photographs",
"References", "Links", "Family Database", "Frequently Asked Questions", etc.
Certainly, I ask all members to forward anything they find of interest in
these categories so we can put them up for the group.

We have been pretty ad hoc so far, as is appropriate in a starting up mode.
I invite any comments from people who wish to suggest (and volunteer for)
some specific projects to move us forward on "Research, Remembrance, and
Recognition" of our families' experiences.

I must agree with Henry, being a little more computer literate but my
writing and deciphering of Polish is not good. However my Aunt is a
translator here and works for many government agencies so I will bring
her 'talents' into use for us.
