I signed up, although I can tell you right now that the Yellow Pages sells way too much in advertising for them to pay any attention to this list. They'll take the list, say thank you, wipe their ass with it, and deliver them again next year.

I'm especially annoyed because I live in a duplex with eight people total, so they dump a pallet of the things on the porch. Nobody's taken one in.

Hey, maybe we should ship them en masse back to the Yellow Pages.

Nah, too expensive.

Let's built a fort for the homeless out of 'em.

You could sign up for each apartment with a different name and a different e-mail address.

I could, but I can't speak for my fellow residents. I can let 'em know about the site, though!
