(Guess posting from e-mail isn't going to work without a lot of effort
on my part since it isn't being passed with reply-to's set to the
group.  Oh well, I can still archive posts.)

Unless, of course, Jacob didn't host it and we needed to get some sort
of inexpensive real webhosting account.  I know pair.com, where my
domain lives, has a $5.95 per month account, although that is ftp only
with no telnet access.  Checking their page shows they have an
$8.95/mo account with telnet access.

All of that may be moot if we already have a place for it to live, but
if for whatever reason we didn't, any surplus could be applied to
that.

I kinda liked the idea of selling $10 or $20 CDs with collections of
models on them.  Nothing wrong with that if most of the money went
into the web-hosting, etc.
