Scholarly online resource evidence and

CURRENT INFORMATION
Wayback Machine:
Now with 240,000,000,000 URLs | Internet Archive Blogs.
Internet Archive Wayback Machine now contains
over 10
petabytes of data
(1000 terabytes
each), eclipsing the amount of text contained in
the world's
largest libraries, including the Library of Congress. Size of the world's
total digital
content exceeds 500
exabytes.
IDC (International Data
Corporation) has reported in
The Expanding Digital Universe
(pdf), and annual updated surveys, that total
amount
of global data will exceed a zettabyte,
by
2010. " . . . use of paper in the world is still
increasing . . .
But we have clearly hit a threshold --
where the digital universe is now
pervasive enough to be a major locale
for commerce,
education, social interaction,
and entertainment."
. . . ."The average web page lasts only
100 days", according
to
Brewster
Kahle,
the noted founder of the Internet Archive and
Open Library.

LEGAL:
COURT INFORMATION & RECORDS
Our Constitution was made only for a moral and
religious people. It is wholly inadequate to
the government of any other.
Noted by John
Adams, Second President of the United States
The United States - Constitution is not a law,
but it empowers the people to make laws. . . .
The Constitution acknowledges that the people have all power not reserved to
itself. . . . . .
The Constitution is not law to us, but it makes provision for us whereby we can
make laws.
Where it provides that no one shall be hindered from worshiping God according to
his own
conscience, is a law. No legislature can enact a law to prohibit it.
The Constitution provides
to regulate bodies of men and not individuals. . . . . The only fault I find
with the Constitution
is, it is not broad enough to cover the whole ground. . . . . . Although it
provides that all men
shall enjoy religious freedom, yet it does not provide the manner by
which the freedom can
be preserved, nor for the punishment of Government officers who refuse to
protect the people
in their religious rights, or punish those mobs, states, or communities who
interfere with the
rights of the people on account of their religion. Its sentiments are
good, but it provides no
means of enforcing them. It has but this one fault. Under its
provision, a man or a people
who are able to protect themselves can get along well enough; but those who have
the
misfortune to be weak or unpopular are left to the merciless rage of popular
fury.
The Constitution should contain a provision that every officer of the Government
who should neglect or refuse to extend the protection guaranteed in the
Constitution should be subject to capital punishment - Joseph Smith, Jr.

Cluster Genealogy
Research technique that examines records left by an
ancestor's cluster:
the
extended family,
friends,
neighbors, business associates, government
contacts, religious affiliations,
etc. This gives a
generational historian, an
accurate picture of life about the person
under investigation. Cluster genealogy
relates to the broader discipline of
prosopography, used in
historical studies.
