Wouldn't it be really cumbersome to be using two lists?  How about if 
nominated posts simply go into a database here, which the volunteers 
could review and catalogue.  I think it really would be much more 
efficient to use a database for the nominations rather than have them 
listed in separate emails that the volunteer cataloguer would have to 
scroll through one by one.  If the nominations were on a database here, 
then the volunteer would immediately have a simple list which (because 
it's a database) would be printable.  In fact, there already is a 
database set up that I thought would serve this purpose.

Am I missing something?
