Help!!  I think I am becoming an FH nerd. Since I got FH 3 weeks ago I have been working with it most evenings. When I get a query or have a success at solving a problem I rush in to tell my wife. Whilst she is interested in genealogy she is not the slightest bit interested in, or knowledgeable about, computers or FH. Now I keep on telling her that 2.1 is on its way. I'm driving her mad. Am I the only one or is there another like me out there?

The key is education.

I sat my husband down and explained that every time I produced a new report, found a new document, or located a new relative the proper response is to make eye contact, smile, nod and say 'Gee honey that's fascinating - good work.'

Ladies: Since then I've discover that this response also works during discussions about the latest automobile modifications my husband has performed.
[grin]

I'm telling you - communications is key to a happy marriage!
