FReeper cgk used to maintain a local, state, regional and miscellaneous lists of those who kept ping lists here. That was almost five years ago. cgk hasn't started a thread in four years or made a comment in two years.
I have made a ping list for every state except Rhode Island. It's on my homepage here.
In the two months or so of making it I haven't seen anybody hailing from Rhode Island when I clicked on their screen name.
I compiled screen names mostly from comments on my threads. It's in alphabetical order except NY. That's for my convenience, although it is separate and is identified as such.
Although they are not explicitly labelled, scan the list of screen names about a dozen names from the start of that state's list, if the list is long enough. It becomes fairly obvious.
I started it a while ago with NJ & PA, two of my neighboring states. I gradually expanded it to a few other states.
I have kept the freepers named in cgk's states lists. It starts after my combined microbiology/immunology ping list.
With the pitiful condition of our BS media that ignores so many stories, I thought a list of 48 states, minus NY and RI, that you could copy conveniently would be handy for really important stories. We're on the honor system. It's not for chat. It's for real news or important history in any state as well.
If you want to be added to or removed from your state's list, please FReepmail me.

I deliberately didn't want to make it obvious for the same reason that most people probably don't want to indicate their state. It's alphabetical including Rhode Island now except NY. Some Canadians are added at the end now, next the Anglosphere.
Would also help the Page Formatting if you added a Space behind each semi-colon; that way the lines dont run the width outside of the window boundaries.
Thanks for the tip. I'll try that on one of my shorter lists first.
I am guilty of spreading information and have learned to stop posting on state boards.
Presently only posting to my friends in Florida.
