Genealogy is immensely interesting to me.

Same here, I just haven't seen it. My dad has it locked up somewhere and I've never bothered asking him to see it.

It is to me too. I love researching my family's genealogy.

My family is from Lynchburg, TN, and they were friends with Jack Daniels. The one and only.

Actually the first TET was 6,618 pages long. The Powers that Be were afraid of how powerful it had grown so they cast it down and split it into 7 parts, and imposed a limit so that no other thread can ever reach the powers it once did.

The first TET was the longest. It was 6,618 pages if I am not mistaken. The first few TET's listed are all actually the first TET made split up due to the new page limit introduction.
