I think it's the opposite, Frank. Despite what I may personally want its
only ones own auctions which may not be discussed in list.They may,
however be discussed on the bus on the way to work!!!
You can actually discus all other aspects of Ebay on the LUG.
But generally people don't get into the ebay thing here last week was a
big exception which i predict will keep everyone satisfied and satiated
for several months. 
It's my guess the word "ebay" is used on list about every 5 or 6 weeks.
I think its funny one or two other lists they are doing the same thing.
"The auction list which must not be named" instead of the word "ebay".

Sorry if I'm wrong on the rules. But I'm here.
