83
+ <p>Welcome to The USGenWeb Project! We are a group of volunteers working together to provide free genealogy websites for genealogical research in every county and every state of the United States. This Project is non-commercial and fully committed to free genealogy access for everyone.</p>
84
+ <p>Organization is by county and state, and this website provides you with links to all the state genealogy websites which, in turn, provide gateways to the counties. The USGenWeb Project also sponsors important Special Projects at the national level and this website provides an entry point to all of those pages, as well.</p>
85
+ <p>Clicking on a State Link (on the left) will take you to the State's website. Clicking on the tabs above will take you to additional information and links. </p>
86
+ <p>All of the volunteers who make up The USGenWeb Project are very proud of this endeavor and hope that you will find their hard work both beneficial and rewarding. Thank you for visiting!</p>

92
+ <p><img src="photos/oldphoto1.jpg" width="175" height="200" align="right" />2006 marks the 10th Anniversary of the USGenWeb Project and I have been looking back over those past 10 years. When the USGenWeb Project began, it was one of the few (if not the only) centralized places on the internet to find genealogy information and post a query. Those early state and county sites began with links to the small amount of on-line information of interest to a family historian and a query page. The only Special Project was the Archives. How far the Project has come during the past 10 years! Now there are several special projects and the states, counties and special projects sites of the Project not only contain links; they are filled with information and transcribed records, and more is being added every day by our wonderful, dedicated and hard working volunteers.</p>
93
+ <p>Ten years ago the internet, as we know it today, was in its infancy. The things we take for granted today--e-mail, PCs, cell phones, digital cameras, etc., were not in the average person's world. Family historians and professional genealogists not only didn't use the internet, most had never heard of it.</p>
94
+ <p>Over the past 10 years the internet has gone from obscurity to commonplace. As the internet became an every day tool for millions of people. it changed the way family historians do research. The availability of on-line, easily accessible genealogy and historical information has fueled the phenomenal growth of Genealogy as a hobby and, I'm proud to say, the Project has been right there every step of the way. </p>
95
+ <p>Everywhere we look we see genealogy reported as the fastest growing hobby in the country. Now the internet is the first stop for beginning family historians and is used extensively by experienced researchers. New &quot;How To&quot; genealogy books devote chapters to using the internet, and it is a rare book that does not recommend The USGenWeb Project as one of the first places to visit.</p>
96
+ <p>While subscription sites have popped up everywhere on the web, The Project has continued to offer free access to its vast wealth of information. The USGenWeb Project is recognized as the premier site of free information, and the Project's websites welcome well over a million visitors each day.</p>
97
+ <p>The Project is where it is today because of the thousands of volunteers, both past and present, who cared enough to devote, collectively, millions of hours to gathering, transcribing and uploading information. </p>
98
+ <p>To each and every volunteer, past and present, a heartfelt Thank You, because you are ones who have made The Project the fabulous resource it is today.</p>

+ <big><big>U</big>TF-8</big> is an ASCII-preserving encoding method for
31
+ <a href="unicode.html">Unicode</a> (ISO 10646), the Universal Character Set
32
+ (UCS). The UCS encodes most of the world's writing systems in a single
33
+ character set, allowing you to mix languages and scripts within a document
34
+ without needing any tricks for switching character sets. This web page is
35
+ encoded directly in UTF-8.

39
+ As shown <a href="glass.html">HERE</a>,
40
+ Columbia University's <a href="k95.html">Kermit 95</a> terminal emulation
41
+ software can display UTF-8 plain text in Windows 95, 98, ME, NT, XP, or 2000
42
+ when using a monospace Unicode font like <a
43
+ href="http://www.monotype.com">Andale Mono WT J</a> or <a
44
+ href="http://www.evertype.com/emono/">Everson Mono Terminal</a>, or the lesser
45
+ populated Courier New, Lucida Console, or Andale Mono. <a
46
+ href="ckermit.html">C-Kermit</a> can handle it too,
47
+ <a href="http://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/~mgk25/unicode.html">if you have a Unicode
48
+ display</a>. As many languages as are representable in your font can be seen
49
+ on the screen at the same time.
50
+
51
+ <p>
52
+
53
+ This, however, is a Web page. Some Web browsers can handle UTF-8, some can't.
54
+ And those that can might not have a sufficiently populated font to work with
55
+ (some browsers might pick glyphs dynamically from multiple fonts; Netscape 6
56
+ seems to do this).

423
+ <li>The "I can eat glass" phrase and initial translations (about 30 of them)
424
+ were borrowed from Ethan Mollick's <a
425
+ href="http://hcs.harvard.edu/~igp/glass.html">I Can Eat Glass</a> page
426
+ (which disappeared on or about June 2004) and converted to UTF-8. Since
427
+ Ethan's original page is gone, I should mention that his purpose was to offer
428
+ travelers a phrase they could use in any country that would command a
429
+ certain kind of respect, or at least get attention. See <a
430
+ href="#credits">Credits</a> for the many additional contributions since
431
+ then. When submitting new entries, the word "hurt" (if you have a choice)
432
+ is used in the sense of "cause harm", "do damage", or "bother", rather than
433
+ "inflict pain" or "make sad". In this vein Otto Stolz comments (as do
434
+ others further down; personally I think it's better for the purpose of this
435
+ page to have extra entries and/or to show a greater repertoire of characters
436
+ than it is to enforce a strict interpretation of the word "hurt"!):

443
+ This is the meaning I have translated to the Swabian dialect.
444
+
445
+ However, I just have noticed that most of the German variants
446
+ translate the "inflict pain" meaning. The German example should rather
447
+ read:
448
+
449
+ <p>
450
+ <blockquote>
451
+ "Ich kann Glas essen ohne mir zu schaden."

+ </blockquote>

+
455
+ (The comma fell victim to the 1996 orthographic reform,

464
+ <ul>
465
+
466
+ <li> Lëtzebuergescht / Luxemburgish: Ech kan Glas iessen, daat deet mir nët wei.
467
+ <li> Lausitzer Mundart ("Lusatian"): Ich koann Gloos assn und doas dudd merr ni wii.

491

492

493
+
494

497
+
498
+ <p>
499

500

501
+ <li> Nederlands / Dutch: Ik kan glas eten; het doet mij geen

504
+
505
+ </ul>
506
+ <p>
507
+
508
+ In the Romanic languages, the variations on "fa male" (it) are probably
509
+ wrong, whilst the variations on "hace daño" (es) and "damaĝas" (Esperanto) are probably correct; "nocet" (la) is definitely right.
510
+
511
+ <p>
512
+
513
+ The northern Germanic variants of "skada" are probably right, as are
514
+ the Slavic variants of "škodi/шкоди" (se); however the Slavic variants
515
+ of " boli" (hv) are probably wrong, as "bolena" means "pain/ache", IIRC.

548

+ the romanized version, in a script current among Taiwanese Christians since
550
+ the mid-19th century. It was invented by British missionaries and saw use in
551
+ hundreds of published works, mostly of a religious nature. Most Taiwanese did
552
+ not know Chinese characters then, or at least not well enough to read. More
553
+ to the point, though, a written standard using Chinese characters has never
554
+ developed, so a significant minority of words are represented with different
555
+ candidate characters, depending on one's personal preference or etymological
556
+ theory. In this sentence, for example, "-tàng", "chia̍h",
557
+ "mā" and "bē" are problematic using Chinese characters.
558
+ "Góa" (I/me) and "po-lê" (glass) are as written in other Sinitic
559
+ languages (e.g. Mandarin, Hakka)."
560
+
561
+ <li>Wagner Amaral of Pinese &amp; Amaral Associados notes that
562
+ the Brazilian Portuguese sentence for
563
+ "I can eat glass" should be identical to the Portuguese one, as the word
564
+ "machuca" means "inflict pain", or rather "injuries". The words "faz
565
+ mal" would more correctly translate as "cause harm".
566

664
+ It's a small village in eastern Lower Saxony.
665
+ The "oe" in this case
666
+ turns out to be the Lower Saxon "lengthening e" (Dehnungs-e), which makes the
667
+ previous vowel long (used in a number of Lower Saxon place names such as Soest
668
+ and Itzehoe), not the "e" that indicates umlaut of the preceding vowel.

674

696
+ <li>From Karl Pentzlin (Kochel am See, Bavaria, Germany):
697
+ "This German phrase is suited for display by a Fraktur (broken letter)
698
+ font. It contains: all common three-letter ligatures: ffi ffl fft and all
699
+ two-letter ligatures required by the Duden for Fraktur typesetting: ch ck ff
700
+ fi fl ft ll ſch ſi ſſ ſt tz (all in a
701
+ manner such they are not part of a three-letter ligature), one example of f-l
702
+ where German typesetting rules prohibit ligating (marked by a ZWNJ), and all
703
+ German letters a...z, ä,ö,ü,ß, ſ [long s]
704
+ (all in a manner such that they are not part of a two-letter Fraktur
705
+ ligature)."
706
+
707
+ Otto Stolz notes that "'Schloß' is now spelled 'Schloss', in
708
+ contrast to 'größer' (example 4) which has kept its
709
+ 'ß'. Fraktur has been banned from general use, in 1942, and long-s
710
+ (ſ) has ceased to be used with Antiqua (Roman) even earlier (the
711
+ latest Antiqua-ſ I have seen is from 1913, but then
712
+ I am no expert, so there may well be a later instance." Later Otto confirms
713
+ the latter theory, "Now I've run across a book “Deutsche
714
+ Rechtschreibung” (edited by Lutz Mackensen) from 1954 (my reprint
715
+ is from 1956) that has kept the Antiqua-ſ in its dictionary part (but
716
+ neither in the preface nor in the appendix)."

727

+ Windows, to a Unix host with the <a
936
+ href="http://www.gnu.org/directory/emacs.html">EMACS</a> text editor. Kermit
937
+ 95 displays UTF-8 and also allows keyboard entry of arbitrary Unicode BMP

+ characters as 4 hex digits, as shown <a href="glass.html">HERE</a>. Hex codes
939

940

943

945
+ of <a href="ckermit.html">C-Kermit</a> on the Unix host (<a
946
+ href="safe.html">where I read my mail</a>) to convert the character set to

948
+ command). That's it -- no "Web authoring" tools, no locales, no "smart"
949
+ anything. It's just plain text, nothing more. By the way, there's nothing
950
+ special about EMACS -- any text editor will do, providing it allows entry of
951
+ arbitrary 8-bit bytes as text, including the 0x80-0x9F "C1" range. EMACS 21.1
952
+ actually supports UTF-8; earlier versions don't know about it and display the
953
+ octal codes; either way is OK for this purpose.

959
+ From: "Bruno DEDOMINICIS" <tt>&lt;b.dedominicis@cite-sciences.fr&gt;</tt><br>
960
+ Subject: Je peux manger du verre, cela ne me fait pas mal.
961
+
962
+ <p>
963
+
964
+ I just found out your website and it makes me feel like proposing an
965
+ interpretation of the choice of this peculiar phrase.
966
+
967
+ <p>
968
+
969
+ Glass is transparent and can hurt as everyone knows. The relation between
970
+ people and civilisations is sometimes effusional and more often rude. The
971
+ concept of breaking frontiers through globalization, in a way, is also an
972
+ attempt to deny any difference. Isn't "transparency" the flag of modernity?
973
+ Nothing should be hidden any more, authority is obsolete, and the new powers
974
+ are supposed to reign through loving and smiling and no more through
975
+ coercion...
976
+
977
+ <p>
978
+
979
+ Eating glass without pain sounds like a very nice metaphor of this attempt.
980
+ That is, frontiers should become glass transparent first, and be denied by
981
+ incorporating them. On the reverse, it shows that through globalization,
982
+ frontiers undergo a process of displacement, that is, when they are not any
983
+ more speakable, they become repressed from the speech and are therefore
984
+ incorporated and might become painful symptoms, as for example what happens
985
+ when one tries to eat glass.
986
+
987
+ <p>
988
+
989
+ The frontiers that used to separate bodies one from another tend to divide
990
+ bodies from within and make them suffer.... The chosen phrase then appears
991
+ as a denial of the symptom that might result from the destitution of
992
+ traditional frontiers.
