For those of you who are members of the IEEE Computer Society you will
have recently received a green envelope in the mail recently with the
annual Computer Society election ballots.  Past history shows that we
receive an approximately 13% return.  Obviously, this is not a true
representative sample of the CS membership.  The officers of TCOS urge
you to return your ballot and make your vote count.  You will note that
there are several individuals running for office who have long
involvement with TAB.  While there is no guarantee that these are the
"best people", they certainly do have TABs interest at heart.  In the
positions of First and Second vice-president Joe Boykin is currently
the VP of TAB, a past Chair of TCOS and vice-chair of TAB. Anneliese
von Mayrhauser has been TAB treasurer, secretary, TCSE Chair and member
of the TAB executive committee.

For the Board of Governors you will also note a number of people
involved in TAB.  For example, Tad Ichikawa is Chair of our new Task
Force on Multimedia computing.

If you have questions about these people, you should ask them, but
please, send in your ballot.  At a time when there are such significant
changes occurring within the Computer Society, we who are a part of the
Technical Committees and TAB should make sure that our voice is heard.
