I vote for the bulletin board to stay as it is.

I was going to stay out of this particular flame because I felt confident that
the bulletin board would stay as it was or with a small change. (I consider
sending out the info once a day vs. when received as a minor change) The
message below, however, concerns me. I like to receive the traffic, which I am
more than willing to edit, automatically as opposed to seeking for it on the
web. I find the web very time consuming to use unless I am looking for a
specific item. There are many messages on the bulletin board that I find
uninteresting, but I suspect that those I find interesting are very
uninteresting to others. That is the beauty of a bulletin board.
