Already being considered, Don, but thanks for the suggestion. As this is a non-commercial venture (read: hobby), I'm in no real rush to get high levels of traffic to the site- especially if the cost involved in doing so would outweigh the benefits of having the board.

Great idea! This might just be the solution I'm looking for, as it's a bit of overkill to use a full domain hosting service. -- Jeff Billman Columbus, OH Sent via Deja.com http://www.deja.com/ Before you buy.
