I would also like to clarify that the Swaplist rules only ask for your name and city/state/zip in public postings. There is no need to post your street address to the list. Here's the mini-FAQ with relevant rules: http://groups.google.com/group/lemswap/browse_thread/thread/1853a96bfcd7d3f9# These rules are for the protection of all swappers. If anyone wants to discuss these rules further the place to do it would be the LEMlists group, not here.
