[Vox Populi!] During the All-Star game itself, NBC put up two 900 numbers for fans to call up to register their sentinment regarding the DH. Over 238,000 votes were cast (at $0.50 each, most were probably not repeat callers :-)), and the DH LOST, 59% to 41%. After having voted for Mondale last fall, it was real nice to have my side win in a landslide this time (of remarkable similar proportions!). Besides, a president is for four years, but baseball is forever... David Rubin {allegra|astrovax|princeton}!fisher!david
