I think this is a bad idea and the post I just did to market.auction is
a prime example of why. At least *I* think it is. It is about an
auction, but it's far more significant (at least I think it is) as
something new in our little world than as just another flog. In fact
it's not a flog, there's no solicitation of bidding in it, unlike my
standard flogs.


Larry, I really do think this does come down to opinion. It would have went
down better with me if somebody else had noted it was "ground breaking",
rather than you yourself. What is to stop (apart from Todd) every Tom, Dick
or Larry from doing this now with their auctions? I'm sure I could put a
"unique" twist on just about any auction, and than tell the world about it?

I not saying you were wrong Larry, just that you may have set a dangerous
precedent.
