as much as i've disagreed with brock in the few weeks i've been on the list, i gotta agree here. i get annoyed with want/auction lists. what's up with want lists? who cares what you want? look for it yourself. don't tell me about it, as if i'm supposed to go out and cdr some piece just so i can trade it to you. and auction lists are just a pain. just posting a url or a request for private reply sounds a lot less annoying to me.
