Dear All, Well, the "results" are in and (kinda sorta) tabulated. Many wanted to give their opinion beyond a simple yes or no -sometimes making the deriving of a yes or no difficult The raw numbers appear to be: Inviting all candidates to address the list by e-mail. for 18 against 6 endorse a candidate: for 3 (not counting a Canadian ) against 2 Ask specific questions: For 3 against 0 Misc.: Get another web site (counted as against) 3 Heitman for president 1 Children, Children 1 Although I found some interest, seems to me we need a more concise method for dealing with whatever remains to this matter. Let's take it one thing at a time: The First vote: Question #1 Should the list invite all of the United States presidential candidates to e-address the list? What you must do to be counted: Click on return and type a single word chosen from among these two: YES or NO For those who wish me to take these political questions elsewhere, the answer is "NO" Best regards, WHH 56/38/37
