Not really... One of my best friends runs that list and probably wouldn't take kindly to me "mining" it. Plus, the MC Adv list is aware of this list already... most of them have been all along since their initial core membership came from this list. I just responded to the new guy with the squeaky-clean Y2K KLR650 with 270 kilometres on it as he was a Canadian guy with an e-mail address that told me he was local (west coast). He sounded like the guy I saw on my way home from work not an hour earlier.
> Are you paid by the # of members?
No. I do this on a voluntary basis and have never been paid a cent. But a dollar a month per member 'would' make a nice little second income... maybe I'll hit up eGroups with the idea.
