This statement makes no sense to me. Overengineering to me would be
writing some database app to do this task. I simply did the
collaborative equivalent of using Calc. It also means that I don't
have to worry about making sure it gets uploaded to the server.

I didn't ask you to do it once. I figured that you were volunteering
to administer the list since you want it done your way. However, if
you aren't going to do to work to keep it up to date, then please
don't bother as two sources of the data will just confuse rather than
help.

Did you not see Christian and Kristian in the other thread earlier?
They were trying to work out how to get down here. Considering that
neither has a car, I think it's pretty clear that they would have to
put themselves out quite a bit to make it. Are you suggesting that we
exclude them?
