The key here is that we sent MORE THAN ONE post announcing the event on gsas-member, spaced out over the month prior. I think that helps a *lot* to remind people, much more than a single announcement. I suggest a first post ASAP, another one on the 3rd, and another on the 9th or morning of the 10th. I think it also helps to have "related" posts from other folks, i.e., I'll do my part by posting a picture of the tank I'm tearing down (and maybe the often-self-hyped Anubias rescue tank). - Erik On Wed, 21 Jan 2009, Steev Ward wrote: <lots of posts from last year's plant auction> -- Erik Olson erik at thekrib dot com _______________________________________________ GSAS-board mailing list GSAS-board@thekrib.com http://lists.thekrib.com/mailman/listinfo/gsas-board
