-----Original Message----- From: bmanning@vacation.karoshi.com [mailto:bmanning@vacation.karoshi.com] you've had lots (some) folks point out the perceived dangers of participating in such a venture. ... yet you continue to insist that such a "service" will be of profound value to the community as a whole and is not replicated anywhere else.

if you are so persuaded, then it seems that instead of espousing the idea, trying to drum up public support, that you should, to borrow a phrase, "just do it" ... and let people know where the site is and how to use it. as usual, YMMV. and you might want to get legal advice.

Well, I didn't think that I was 'insisting' on the idea, at least that's not how I meant my posts to come across. Frankly, I've been rather surprised at the level of the negativity that has come across towards this idea in several of the posts and I'm not sure why that is. In either case, your last paragraph, Bill, was the direction I was headed. I'll mull it over for a time then decide if I want to put something in place and see what kind of response there is out there. Matt
