Talking with my dear friend Chris today, we delved into why Ol' Myrt prefers genealogy discussions as opposed to giving lectures. Conversations bring the subject matter down about ten notches in the PDL department.
When Ol' Myrt gives a lecture, it's all about me imparting information. But our genealogy conversation should not be about how much Ol' Myrt knows, but should be about how we can make progress in our family history research.
When we discuss a research topic, its more likely:
- Your questions will be answered by someone in the panel.
- We are more likely to internalize the methodology.
- We see the advantage of using a new record set.
Here's a short, 5 minute video recorded with +Cousin Russ titled Why Be Wacky?
Happy family tree climbing!
