It makes more sense to me to have 'forsale' newsgroups set up local to an
individual state or city.

'net.forsale' will simply not be useful for overseas sites.  If anyone out
there is contemplating a 'na.forsale' vs. 'usa.forsale', from a local point
of view I'd recommend 'na.forsale'.  You see, out here we're technically
'usa' but not 'na'...and for the first time I see this as an advantage.
