There is one solution to avoiding membership lists and information leading to problems and that is to compile a list with all the information and email it as an attachment or just print out a hard copy annually to be mailed to current members.
I would prefer a hard copy that could be kept in the coach, but then again I may be the only computer illiterate here.

Hang on, we want in on this. We are in Wheat Ridge, Colorado. 2 miles east of a Camping World.
We have 50 amp and water hookup. For "black water", you will have to cross you axles.:D

OK, I'm going a little off the chart here, but since part of what we are doing in this group is helping each other, and we are getting an impressive level of collective expertise, and it sounds like there are assets we have that could be of tremendous value, should we consider pulling all of this together?
For example, Mango and JDUB are both highly qualified Webasto experts. They have been deep inside of one and have the ability to analyze or repair them.
JDUB has the DD reader. And he is not afraid to use it.
I have a pit and would not mind spending a few hours in the pit showing another owner the finer points of the underside of a coach, or repairing a brake.
Tom is our resident Marathon inverter guru, and he knows how to make it work under varying power conditions.
My point is we can go beyond just listing addresses, but can list skills or assets we can make available to help others. When we started this thing we never dreamed how fast we could pull together the expertise that has emerged, so I seriously think we should put it to work and continue to build a base of "experts" all over the country, including a listing of POG members like CoBus that have a place we can park.
When we need help, there is nothing better than having another helper, even if the help is just moral support.

OK, I think this is a great idea and resource, but I keep thinking about Randy Quaid in National Lampoons VACATION movies. The inlaw from Hell who never leaves. Clark Griswald,s Nemisis.

If you want to see how another group, the DataStorm users group does this take a look at http://map.datastormusers.com/
After the US map loads, scroll down to any user name and click on it.
You get a localized map, with any other datastorm user who is in that area posted as well.
They have recently also added the ability to view everyone on google earth!
http://map.datastormusers.com/kml/108.kml (if you have GE installed)
What's really fun with this group is the locations are dynamic. As they travel around, they run a program which grabs their latitude and longitude from the satellite dish, and registers their location with the map server.
I know the author of this, perhaps I can see if he'd be willing to share a bit?
ps: Here's a google earth link to my home! http://map.datastormusers.com/kml/00003029.kml
Dale, put me on in Lake Forest CA, just right and down from Kevin's dot!
