I agree about the cross-posts, but having a Tucson only
would eliminate all those wonderful deals that only occur
if you live in Scottsdale. Hopefully with a Tucson.* series,
we would have less of the spams that currently infest the 
Az.* newsgroups. (At least until the spammers figure out
that Tucson.* exists....)
