Bryon, Logic had nothing to do with my request for a list. Using a list is more like a shotgun approach.
After reading Beth's comment about not being fair by only emailing four members, I thought it would be best to notify all members at the same time with the same information. Hence, the request for a list. After reading your message, I will take your advice and modify my email routine. If you think a single email to [email protected], with a link to photos on imgur.com, will suffice, then that is the method of notice I will use in the future. Also, my offer to donate stuff is for SH and SH members only. I am not inclined to give away good stuff to just anybody who happens to read the email messages. Most of what I have to donate has some value and could be sold by the person requesting it. I am not inclined to support somebody's Craigslist activity by supplying them with free stuff to sell. Thanks for your input. Philip On Tue, Dec 3, 2013 at 12:02 PM, Philip P.
