[co.politics is _still_ a Perot love-in, so I'm posting this to boulder.general]. Did anyone else catch Roger Olson's letter to the _Colorado Daily_ today: The following types of people would be benefited: 1. Senior citizens... 2. Any handicapped citizen... [then, in the _next_ paragraph] I wouldn't mind having a requirement that _everybody_ (emphasis added) who wanted to vote should arrive at the polls on a bicycle. Let me get this straight: you want to require people arrive at polls on foot or by bike, and then use _this_ requirement as a reason to support voting by phone? (I won't even touch the following sentence, where he appears to claim that people who oppose this proposal should give up their cars. He doesn't say why; I guess as a sign of 'moral purity' or something). Bear Giles bear@fsl.noaa.gov
