excellent idea, bill!!!  i've got loads of computer equipment, books
and electronics i'd like to unload.  that i *have* to unload before
moving.

i don't mind donating 100% proceeds to lugod.  heck.  most of it would
be tossed, recycled or given away anyhow.
 
might be a good venue to also have that bake sale we've been joking
about for 4 years now...   :-)

some brownies.   ;-)
