Lines: 10 Oddly enough, I wrote a proposal on 'voter' registration a few months ago that was almost exactly like this one. I wrote it because I got tired of all the people who call these things votes when they aren't. Aside from normally being binding, all real votes also require that voters be on a list. But on reflection, I decided it was yet more bureaucracy, and we need less and less, not more and more. -- Brad Templeton, ClariNet Communications Corp. -- Waterloo, Ontario 519/884-7473
