In Reply to: OT Use of Craigslist. posted by dmiller on November 17, 2009 at 21:29:40:
Use it all the time here in NY--it's one of my daily visits. Have bought several things and sold a few, the largest sale being my '79 Gold Wing. There's no cost to individual sellers. Because of that, it's a magnet for spammers and scammers, but as usual, they're fairly easy to spot--flag them and move on. The CL flagging system actually works pretty well--most scams are removed quite quickly. You'll also get quite a few scammers responding to your ads, but again, they're easy to spot and you can just ignore them. The CL e-mail system is set up as a blind system for both parties on their first e-mails--you won't know who's e-mailing you the first time and they won't know who you are when you e-mail back. After that, both of your e-mails are known to each other. For that reason, you can just ignore obvious scam e-mails and they won't get your "real" address--all they'll have is the CL e-mail address that disappears as soon as the ad is removed. Craig's List as pretty much killed the newspaper classifieds, at least here in NY, as it's much faster, more convenient, reaches a wider audience, there's no issues with the newspaper mis-printing your phone number, and it's free.

I have picked up and attempted to read every auto and farm electrics book with no improvement in the situation. They all seem to start with a chapter entitled "Theory of Electricity". After a few paragraphs I usually close the book and go back to banging out dents. A good friend and I were recently discussing our tractor electrical systems when he stated "I figure it all comes back to applying Ohms Law". At this point
