Well a young conservative list would include your age group too. So if you ever get pinged for that thread you should ping your group too!
It depends, For instance this one that just popped up now is too young for my list
Young Conservatives Make Strides In NC
But it's probably perfect for Bethbg79's (So Bethbg79 - PING to the above link!!)
As for the weekly ping, Ok I'll be in and I'll ping the list (Unless for some reason I get a lot of complaints). I would suggest to make on Fridays since some other ping list do that and everybody is more upbeat and it seems Fridays are the days you get the most hits (In Ping list Lingo it's called The Friday Fun Ping). Even on my list I tend to look for articles that are lighthearted/nostalgic to post on Fridays.
