Wes,
I think that the way the list is setup now benifits all users.  Splitting
up the list will only split up the collective knowledge and make it
difficult for someone searching for solutions.

Besides we all benefit from knowing were there are good mechanics and/or
events all over the country.

Just my opinion.
