show off.  "

i have some stuff on my list (in the etree db) that i classify as
not-tradeable by selecting "no" under "trades allowed."  i put these shows
on my list for my own cataloging purposes.  for example, i have the live
phish series shows* on my list, but they're on there as non-tradeable.  i,
and i suspect others are like me in this respect (though not everyone), use
my list not only for trading purposes, but also to keep track of my shows.

* i know that you can trade aud recordings of shows in the live phish
series, but you certainly can't trade copies of the series itself.

anyway, i guess what i'm getting at is that people _do_ use their etree
lists for more than _just_ listing shows for trade.

If by "code of honor", you mean "code to flip out and go
nuts for absolutely no reason at all even if it means that
people might think you are totally insane or sweet", then
you are right. But if you mean a "code to be nice and speak
nicely while sharing and not cutting off heads", then you're
the biggest idiot ever!!!!!!
