Yeah! That's exactly it....I don't normally get to
mail stuff to say Bolivia which I recently did...It gets some smiles at my
little local post office, that's for sure!
Plus a little personal contact with distant and
exotic lands and friendly people.

I know it's slower for those farther down the list,
but I agree with Richard. It hasn't been more than 2-3 bucks for me to
mail overseas, and it's kind of fun to see something from Poland, Croatia, Sao
Paolo, or the isles arrive.

I agree, splitting makes for confusion
searching and remembering what's due to arrive...They get around faster than
they did IMHO now than they did under the email bidding system. Plus it sort
of puts a virtual wall across the world, it's friendlier when you don't
know where you are sending next..And its only a few dollars more after all!
Or are we only in it for the money? LOL.

Whatever you guys wish, I suppose. But part of the vine system we
employ makes searching for them easier and I feel that splitting them will
make that end more confusing.
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
Ullmann-UK << Scott Burnett - US << Joseph-US
[EMAIL PROTECTED] << Guy-US [EMAIL PROTECTED] <<
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 <<
Scott Burnett - US << Joseph-US [EMAIL PROTECTED] <<
Guy-US [EMAIL PROTECTED]
<<
This is merely a suggestion; it's really something the vine
participants need to decide for themselves...
My 2 cents,
SOFA
