Ducoty was a big supporter -- if votes from grumbly!root, grumbly!bob and grumbly!duc mean anything :-) Not a lot heard from 'em these days. The six week[...?] vote period finally closes this Friday, I guess. A tantrum may follow -- arm your petulance avoidance circuits ;-)

If Eliot says it is ok to count your vote I will. Yes this is true! Not to worry all yes votes received after May 21st got the same message! Only votes received after May 21st got this message. Elliot Lear has not let me know if I can count all votes received between May 21st and June 1st. Please don't flame me I am just trying to follow the rules! ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Dave Armbrust | uunet!pcssc!dma PC Software Systems | dma@pcssc.com 2121 Cornell Street | Phone: (813)365-1162 Sarasota, FL 34237 |
