So, the Liberals will have to wait for a few years 'on the sidelines'. But *will* they get back into the big ring? for example: Assuming an exponential decay (why not) from approx. 150 seats to 40 seats in (say) 4 years means that they are now through as a major political party and will be down to 11 seats by 1988! [ ] [ # of seats = 150 * exp( - (year-1980)/3.0263 ) ] [ ]
