Ahhh geeeez! Can I do this? Oh well, it may help someone.
Found this list while night surfing in the wee, small hours, this morning.
Compiled by some guy, from somewhere, at sometime - I noticed a few sites are no longer up, so I removed them - There are probably more, I didn't have time to check.
Feel free to add to this list and this thread could become a handy place to hang out.
