What's the ruling on that? The lug is a benign dictatorship (sorry Brian :) ) - there are very few rules and little or no policy. The list owner only steps-in in extreme circumstances. Policy is often decided by those who shout loudest and longest, or alternatively, by being ignored by the largest number of luggers. The latter usually works best, though have you ever seen a lugger who can restrain themselves from commenting on any matter, however little they know about it - myself included ;-) eg, it is generally agreed to post fs items on Fridays. Most people keep to this (because it actually works well), but people can post any time, and fairly frequently do (though usually including an apology, along with some tall tale about having to post on Monday, because this is an "emergency" sale!). And the definition of exactly when "friday" starts is pretty loose (something to do with the international dateline and the phases of the moon...) Tim A
