I don't know what you have in mind for your "unique twist".  I do know
that there are at least two large lists of mailing lists available on the
Web.

Stephanie da Silva has been compiling her list of lists for years.
http://www.neosoft.com/internet/paml/

There is a nice search engine on the Web at:
http://www.liszt.com/

Such data bases are two edged swords.  On the one hand, they make it
easier for folks to find lists that they are interested in.  On the other
hand, I suspect that most of the swine who forging subscriptions use the
data from such lists.
