Hard to tell <a href="http://flickr.com/photos/docsearls/7156107/" rel="nofollow">here</a>, but trust me. In a line of similar good-looking guys, I'm the odd one out. (Even though I look more like my mom, who was <a href="http://searls.com/doc/mom/pix/1946-1974/pages/1948_08_play.htm" rel="nofollow">a babe</a>.) Shel,

We have the biggest genealogical library in the world here in Salt Lake City. A lot of the records are still offline. You should really check it out.

This became a goatee because I'm a lazy shaver and that's my whole pattern of beard growth: there's not much outside that area. George W. Searls grew the moustache because that was the fashion, near as I can tell. He lacked the moustache in later photos. Mary Lu, I used a CanoScan 8800F, which I bought from Amazon for $169.95, with free shipping and no tax. Helluva deal. Highly recommended. Does slides and negatives too. I've also used a camera at times for scanning, but it's a poor substitute. Eric, in my case the moustache is grown at my wife’s urging because she thinks I look better with it.
