Part of our discussion of standards on the Transitional Genealogists Forum list made me think of what one should tell a beginning genealogist if you both were in a hurry. My candidates are The Two Commandments:
1. Don't believe everything you see; check it out.
2. Remember where you found stuff; somebody's bound to need it again.
If you cut out the elaborations (after the semicolons), it's only ten words!
Amen! Enough said:)
