Norm, thanks for all your investment in effort and $.  The responses so far 
seem to be just about unanimous, and I pretty much agree with the consensus. 
I have only one mild quibble:

Maryland is a pretty small state, so I (along with most others I suspect) 
bird out of the state fairly frequently.  I don't subscribe to birding 
listserves for the adjoining states (because I don't want to see their 
complete sightings lists, and probably couldn't tolerate all that extra 
humor), so I would like to hear about unusual or interesting sightings in 
nearby states if they are within a 2-3 hour drive, such as Delaware, 
northern Virginia, and southern PA.  Complete lists of sightings there 
wouldn't be appropriate, only the highlights.

Keep up the good work!
