But for one lurker to contact another lurker would be more problematic.
We had a great afternoon on Flathead Lake, but if I hadn't posted a few
times, you might not have known you were within 30 miles of another
Paddlewiser on your trip last summer.

I also agree with the need for security of personal phone numbers and
addresses, though.

The nicest thing about a list similar to the Warm Showers list is that
it would encourage lurkers to list their own contact info, in order to
view others'.  (I would venture to guess that while lurkers outnumber
regular posters on the list 6:1, regular posters probably far outnumber
lurkers on the Who's Who list.)
