Paddy has spoken - which is good enough for me.

However, one suggestion. Many have put forward the idea of restricting FS
postings to once per month per person. This poses some obvious tracking
problems for the list moms. If the new system proves unworkable, and some
restriction is required, how about listing FS posting to one day of the
month based on the first letter of the seller's last name.

Abrams and Allison would post on the first, Byers and Burns on the second,
etc.

After Zimmerman and Zorro post on the 26th, we have 2 - 5 days of no FS
postings while we all hunt for new (old) tools or actually spend more time
discussing them.

It might be easier for the list moms to police, for if Zorro is posting a FS
list on the 10th, he/she is obviously ignoring list policy.

Just a possible alternative if the current trial doesn't work.
