I think it would be a nice touch to have a Q-list decal.  I travel a lot.
Every time I am in the states for a week or more I get at least 2000 miles on
my 87 Audi 5kTQ(150k +?).  Thank god I have not had any serious trouble (knock
on wood) but it is always appreciated when someone does make that special
effort to help another traveller, lister or not.
The decal and a something for Dan's troubles is a fine idea.
