All,
Before the Autojumble list went active I had started another mail list
for commercial messages. In light of Mike's AutoJumble I will probably
stop the tr-parts (tr-parts@kc4sw.com) mailing list, unless there is
interest in two different venues.
Personally even though it was fun (educational??) to set it up, I can't
see a reason to have two lists let me know

Subject: Commercial Messages on the list
I thought there was some compromise in the works for selling items on
the list.
From the last go-round on this subject, it seemed clear to me that lots
of list members are not offended by vendors selling items on the list as
long as they do so in a reasonable way.
I will suggest again that a simple compromise would be to identify
commercial messages with a keyword in the subject line like
LBC-COMMERCIAL. Commercial messages could easily be filtered and deleted
by those offended by such emails.
It would also be easy to limit such messages to 1 per week per seller or
whatever.
