Having to answer for him really gets tiresome for us South Dakota FReepers! :o)
We know he's a maggot-infested-koolaid-sucking-McGovernite-commielib. We're trying to unseat him, okay?
Mass ping lists would last about 20 seconds here. I don't want to be pinged with something every time Dump Gephardt or Carnahan opens their mouths. But if I want a list of articles that people thought might be of interest to Missourians, I can just go to Missouri's list. Easy. If I see a thread that concerns South Dakota (Leroy Carhart threads, for instance), I can just bump it to **South_Dakota.
It's just a bump list -- not a ping list.
