And as they had written in the universe as a whole, so they wrote on earth: that no two things would be made alike in the same generation or from one generation to the next. They wrote this in the very scheme of things, so that every kind and every species grew and changed in their hands, generation after generation, age after age. The Tales of Adam

HELP! I don't get it! People add themselves to this database. They tell about themselves, and they choose a login name and password so that they can come back later and update their information. The cities, states, countries, and dates in the drop-down boxes are loaded dynamically from a database...if your state (etc.) is not here, it is because no one is in our database from there. When you or someone from your state (etc.) add themselves here, your state (etc.) will show up automatically. This will also explain odd entries in the dropdown lists...you can correct those yourself if it's your record! How about some input on how to make this site more useful, eh?! It's built for you, so if it's not useful...let me know!
