I appreciate the desire to bring Randy's query in front of a larger audience.

But I think it's important not to fracture the conversation. Anyone interested in discussing the merits of the idea, please see the original thread referenced above. MilesBuzz is really not the right place for the discussion.

In other words, there's a difference between a cross-post (starting the same conversation in multiple places, which leads to fractures which are difficult to follow) and a cross-reference (saying "hey, look over there... and please continue the discussion over there").

The former is frowned upon. I suspect that in this case the latter may be useful, especially because it's bringing Randy's offer or query to the attention of more members.

Now that this mission has been accomplished, I'm going to close this thread to further discussion and encourage interested members to follow the link provided by the original poster.

Regards,
Gary
