Thank you, Jim, Jeff and others, for your ideas.

I dream of taking the T&T List to the next level, but it won't happen 
until volunteers step forward to make it happen.

There is so much knowledge and experience among Listees, it's a shame 
we don't have a proper reference library set up, perhaps along FOO 
lines, perhaps as Jeff has suggested. (I agree, the current archive, 
even with Google, is barely adequate.)

When news of the demise of Power Boat Reports hit the List, I thought 
of posting an invitation for subscribers to figure out how T&T List 
could become a resources for trawlers the way PBR attempted to be in 
a broader sense. I didn't post it as I'm too preoccupied with a 
magazine project right now to launch into brainstorming and planning 
a new project.

When sufficient number of Listees get excited about the idea--and 
step forward to make it happen--that's when we'll see the next 
generation evolve.

PS  The List generates no revenue. In fact, it is an expense for me 
personally, which is I why I periodically put out a call for 
donations.
