Being the system administrator of system 'fantasci', I would also be willing to
set up a "re-distribution" point for the mailing list.  Or if it were to go
regional, I may be able to take care of this area with some guidance from an
experienced mailing list coordinator...

The idea of having a central origination point sending out single copies to
"re-distribution" points is a good idea...
