orphaned/abandoned boxes

Howdy folks,

Please take the time to go to the site and search for boxes by placer.
In there is the choice of AbandonedBoxes. There are plenty! If you
want to adopt boxes in your area, you will be able to see which boxes
are abandoned by this list. In some cases, the clues to the abandoned
boxes have the original poster's e-mail address in them. You can
contact that person and see if they want to maintain their box, if
they want to box to disappear, of if they want to let you take over.
That's what I'm doing for Georgia (we have 3 in this state).
If you can't find the e-mail of the person in the clues, you can copy
and paste the clues to your computer so that you'll have them. At that
point, I would say it is safe to take over maintaining the box if
that's what you want to do.
Be sure and search for all of the abandoned boxes. I can see why Wes
and others want to clean up the database!

Just my 2 cents,
Mark

All unclaimed boxes are under the Webmasters login name.
You can search by this placer on the search page for your
particular state to get an idea of what's around you.

I mis-spoke.
The boxes are under the name "AbandonedBoxes".
Much closer to the top of the list, alphabetically!

Who are all the webmasters, and how do we distinguish orphans from the
webmaster's own?

I'm asking in particular for CT: At one point, someone other than Jay
had posted one of my clues (which I claimed)...and Maine too.
