Seems to me that Kaleb would be the largest poster, and thereby it
should benefit him. I keep finding new parts I didn't remember I had.
My thought is that the people approved for posting should be able to
fill in a form online with price, description and contact info. Then
the software should convert that to a posting with disguised or
hidden email address as in craigslist, or fleabay.
Maybe a monthly reminder to posters that they should review their
listings and delete what is sold. Or it could be coercive: if you
don't review, you posting is automatically deleted after 10 days.
Automation is the key.
There would have to be rules for use
Maybe one for no commercial postings, except for the list-dad
Maybe an embargo on new subscribers to the list from advertising for
X months, to prevent people (spammers) from signing up just to advertise stuff.
It would require some volunteer time to approve listings and such,
unless someone figures out a way to make money form it. I am not
inclined to used dickarde's rapacious rates to hurst and Rusty to
fund the project.

Sounds like a win, win to me if Kaleb goes along. I would not be
for it if his business suffers, after all, he provides this
list. Figure a way to help fund the list with money from each
sell. Hmmm, sounds like another tax.
