I can do format and html, so it would be easy for me to save and store until whoever wants them. Or we can just create one thread, tell everyone to leave comments off, and just post the research. Make it simple.
That's great. I'd think that's exactly what's needed. Whoever does the thread can insert comments they feel appropriate. That makes it a cut/past issue for them. I also suspect it would be a weekly edition, because the number of relevant daily threads on these sites would be minimal at best. I know that from my Afire! ping list. It grows less through the week, then what accumulates over the weekend can be large or small, depending on the material out there...

That’s the best idea. One thread for the posts, then another thread for comments. Lots of forums do that so it doesn’t clutter up the one. I think we could do it like the dummie funnies only no comments. Take them to task. The battle has started. No more free rides. I will volunteer to do a lot of research. If every FReeper just googled 10 minutes and found one post a day, it would be incredible. The main problem would be duplicates but maybe if we see a duplicate we could ask the mods to delete it?
There have been many times when I wished that FR had a kind of "database" thread like you describe. Patriotic quotes, evil leftist quotes, etc. that weren't commented on but were there for us to refer back to. Maybe you could call them "reference" threads or something.
If you have any ideas along these lines I'd appreciate hearing about them. There is so much great info on FR that we can't search because we can only search titles. It would be great to have a way to keep this knowledge handy and accessible.
