Ed,

I hope that groups grow enough to create lists as well.  But we dont want to
segregate before achieve a critical mass.  The Machine Ship discussions can
take place on the languishing prepherial list, and any sort of museum
conversation belongs on the library list.

But on the subject of these.  One, could your reforward my response to the
GIS question? I am not on most of those lists, or invite people to one of
the olpc lists.  Two, I think that we might have enough people/interest for
a good email thread about low cost 3d printers, lathes, etc.  Lets start
talking.
