OUCH! That could be a lot of disk space and make a serious bandwidth
sucking site! Having the site on a home machine takes care of the space
problem, I just wouldn't want to have a bunch of people clogging up my line
looking at boards. I don't know, maybe I'm overreacting. I've got to
admit it's a cool idea.

However, I really like the idea of a "Shadow" page, I could give stuff like
that to the local recycler I do business with, he's totally clueless about
what is good.
