Sounds good to me, case by case and what makes sense. As far as searching, as long as both Europe
and US vines are in the same VO heading, that shouldn't be a problem.
This idea makes a lot of sense to me...
I wasn't wrong in '76, but graduated high school - does that count?

How about the person who starts the vine waits till there is a list of people who want it. (
say waiting 4 or 5 days before starting it)
Then the vine starter cuts and pastes the list to make it geographically sensible.
Once it's in motion other people can add their names and OK it may eventually do some pond
hoping.
But at least it starts out efficiently.

Whatever you guys wish, I suppose. But part of the vine system we employ makes searching for

Whatever...

I think at this point all we can do is learn how to things differently in the future.
As a possible model for future vines of this sort: When I receive the vine, I could burn two
(2) sets, and then send one to the next EU\UK recipient and one to the next US recipient. And we
just send them in the order listed disregarding those not in the country the vine is traveling
in.
i.e. those in the US disregard all EU\UK recipients, and those in the latter afore mentioned
disregard all US recipients.

Well...
I'm not one to complicate things and, tho I can see some of the efficiencies mentioned in
this thread regarding vines crossing the pond, I think having two branches for every vine will
end up complicating the system. My opinion is that a single vine is easier to track, and easier
to search. I guess I'd rather see single vines where an occasional shuffling of names occurs
(with the agreement of the participants, of course).
As this vine is already enroute to Europe, it does make a bit of sense to have it make the
rounds a bit there. The vinage as posted lately is:
Chris US << Bart << mr. skull << Richard-UK << Milhouse-US << white rabbitt-US << Nick
With the vine on it's way to Bart, and if all are amenable, it could be amended to:
Bart << mr. skull << Richard-UK << Nick Ullmann-UK << Milhouse-US << white rabbitt-US <<
This is merely a suggestion; it's really something the vine participants need to decide
for themselves...
My 2 cents,
SOFA

Mr SOFA, could you help us out here?
