idea...

[jab86@cornell.edu]

in the short time that i've been on the list, i have seen uncountable 
messages where a lister writes something to the effect of

"saw a really sweet-looking ____ today - lister?"

now, my grandfather was a mason, and he had a badge on the back of his 
car with the masonic symbol on it.  whenever he would see another masonic 
badge he would wave at the driver (mostly confusing said river, but it 
might be better with us since we drive audis).  whenever he saw a 
disabled car on the side of the road with a masonic badge, he would go 
way out of his way to help them.

maybe we could design a small decal for the backs of our cars so that we 
wouldn't have to waste time with "- lister?"  instead we could just go up 
and introduce ourselves.  i was thinking of a simple black Q about four 
inches in diameter - maybe a silver one for dark cars?  anybody know 
where to get decals made?  i, for one, would be very interested in 
shelling out a couple of dollars to be part of a group purchase.  we 
could also tack on a couple of bucks to the price to help with Dan's costs.
