I'd like to get that done, but haven't had much success yet drumming up money 
from a sponsor to do it. (A couple companies are flirting with the idea, but 
I haven't been able to devote much time to dogging them.) My current provider 
(marketplace.com) can't devote the resources to do it, and I don't have the 
technical expertise to do it myself. Ideas for accomplishing this on the cheap 
welcomed. Better yet, if you know of a potential corporate sponsor that can 
actually make a decision. ... 8-) It's a good idea and I'd like to get it done.

Subscribe in digest form, then you'll receive 1-2 big messages a day.
