Hi Kaitlyn, Thanks for identifying the duplication and proposing the merge! Besides other aspects, with the wife and her relatives I was unaware of, you just helped my CC7 score to jump quite a bit...almost a hundred "new" cousins, pushing my total over the 2K line and scoring me the next badge, so thanks very much! I've tagged it with my profile-improvement personal cat so that I can circle back and give the profile text a good cleanup.
