Yeah, I'm just brainstorming. The last thing I want to do is hurt wikipedia.

Part of the problem is... is anyone here actually on craigslist on a regular basis? I might get on if I have a toaster to get rid of but I'm not part of the community that would actually be affected by the ads.

The problem is Craigslist is for-profit.

Interesting. Are non-profits not allowed to sell advertising space to raise money for their cause? That seems like part of the tax code that damn well ought to be fixed.
