                               ================

        Yes, I'm afraid it's the Porsche owner's lament again; "Must sell car
due to growing family" (It's still better than the "Must sell; getting married"
classified I once saw).

        It's in good condition, and has served me well these past 15 months.
It has all the original equipment including radio, but what's *really* important
is that it's bright red with lots of shiny chrome.

	Make me an offer around $7,500 for this classic example of German
engineering, or give me a call to arrange to see it (in Palo Alto).

Subject: Looking for local handmade furniture
Organization: Stanford University, California, USA
Date: Wed, 30 Dec 1992 18:32:19 GMT

I'm interested in buying solid handmade furniture from a local crafts-person.
I like rustic looking, but not cutesy country (no hearts).  My needs are 
basic (tables, nightstands, etc), so I don't need custom, unless the person 
only makes custom furniture.

I live off Mountain Charlie Rd (Summit/17 area), but I'm willing to go to 
other parts of the Santa Cruz mountains to support a local artist instead of
a huge furniture conglomerate.

Thanks in advance for any recommendations!

[Note:  I am cross-posting this to the included groups because often
the sorts of postings which would go to ba.helping-hand are showing up
in these groups, particularly postings where someone is giving something
away.]

This is a call for discussion regarding the formation of a new group,
ba.helping-hand.

Many people who have access to the net know people who are in need.
On the other hand, many people who have access to the net are themselves
more fortunate, and often have items or services which they would like
to see given to a good home, or put to good use.

I have personally been involved in posting endeavors which have
resulted in people truly in need of an item or service being matched
up with someone who has just such an item or service.  Most recently I
saw this when I attempted to find a bed for a teenage boy who had just
moved, with his single mom, and who had nothing to sleep on.  The
response was immediate, and generous, and as a result this deserving
teen will no longer have to drag himself into school after a poor
night's sleep on the floor, while a woman who is moving, and finds
herself with an extra bed which she was hoping to donate to a worthy
cause, now has a good and appreciative home for the bed.

I believe this is an obvious, and perfect, use of the net, and I can
easily see this group becoming a matching service for both donations
and exchanges of needs and items/services.

Given the potential for an overwhelmingly high signal to noise ratio, it
should probably be moderated.

I welcome discussion regarding the formation of ba.helping-hand.

No argument here.  A possible refinement:  would it be better to form
a misc.helping-hand or soc.helping-hand, and use the distribution field
to focus the coverage?

I think that you also need to structure the requests so they can be
browsed efficiently.  This newsgroup will only be effective to the
extent that it's used.

Finally, perhaps subgroups, either by kind of need, or by .supply and
.demand?

A Checkgroups message was issued today for the ba hierarchy.  Some
systems running early releases of the news software do not understand
the checkgroups control message.  It is strongly suggested that these
sites update to version at least 2.11B of the news software as soon as
possible.  Those cites running C-News should use the May 2 version
for best results with checkgroups.
