Hi Cliff.  Nice to hear from you.

The message you referenced was posted in the Library of the ROOTS
(Compuserve) forum in July.  Someone must have picked it up and forwarded it
to your network.

Unfortunately, work has not progressed as quickly as we had hoped.  Recent
releases to my beta testers have produced many good ideas.  Their
implementation plus ongoing work with the report writer and printer drivers
has delayed the release of TMG.  We still anticipate that we are several
weeks away from distribution.

As you will no doubt appreciate, we are committed to releasing a stable
product rather than rushing it to market.

I do appreciate your interest, however, and I'd be glad to send you more
detailed information about TMG.  It is an expanded version (8 pages) of the
announcement you've seen - and it includes some screen shots.

I've also put you on the list for a demo as soon as it is available.

Thanks again for your interest and please let me know if I can answer any
specific questions about The Master Genealogist (TMG).  I'd be especially
interested in any "wish-lists" you or your INTERNET friends might have for
genealogical software. I can be reached here (Compuserve 76366,1760) or at

    Wholly Genes, Inc.
    6868 Ducketts Lane
    Elk Ridge, Maryland 21227
    (410)796-2447

I am out of the office until Saturday but I'd be happy to return any
calls/letters at that time.
-Bob
