Hmmmmm.I guess as Cheryl says we are back to the Forumj idea. You're right -- the lead time is too long to print it with TAG. I still have reservations about the forum from a liability standpoint. Could we simply do it as a "published" emailing to a group who wants to sign up. Thert\e is plenty of history for the "honest broker" in terms of ebay and aquabid, so I would not be as concerned if that is all we were doing. Perhaps we could make this a money making thing for AGA. Charge $X per year (in addition to they have to be an AGA member) if they want to participate in the "plant swap forum"? Mayhaps could work?
