Thanks .... I will consider changing it. Meanwhile, I did not really mean to put the Treasurer in the basement (No's 1 and 3) but only the TREASURES. And while the orginal Commandments number 10, I couldn't find any way to shrink the archival ones down to less than 12.

While I like Lynne's "commandments" very much,
I do admit to cringing at the phrase "genealogical
archiving" .... why not try "The 10 Commandments of the
Genealogical Archivist"
I'm having a lot of trouble with the term "archiving" in
the popular attitude. Most do not equate it with responsible
archival work, but with merely saving everything.
