Hey, you got on to something here - Let's do it this way:
How about the newsgroup readers/lurkers of the la.- newsgroups vote for
"Virtual Mayor of L.A."? The "Virtual Mayor" would be someone on the Internet
who would make a "campaign" on the net and try to garner votes. The 
winner will be the Virtual Mayor. Of course, the "Virtual Mayor" is just 
a title, and has no real power, duties or clout, but maybe we can do this 
just for the fun of it. Heck, we can probably have "elections" every year.
Picture it: Campaign WWW pages. Support .sigs in lieu of buttons/yardsigns.
Debates on IRC! It'll be fun! 
 
If anyone's up for something like that, then I hereby announce my 
candidacy for Virtual Mayor of L.A. in 1996.

Elson
