Why don't we do our own list, in two steps:
1. Nominations will be submitted to a
volunteer election officer, for a
period of 90 days, say.
2. At the end of 90 days, we will tally
our own votes, and publish the results.
What are your thoughts on this proposal?

p.s. Did anybody buy the magazine, and
read the story on page 68? That little
girl is my choice for #1.
