In general, I think that would be a dangerous path, excluding people from voting, just like when a member of parliament suggests it, but it makes me think. It's a pity we can't vote in specialists. For instance a parliamentary scientist, I think they have enough lawyers and business people, engineer, medical expert, mathematician etc. -- Kim Holburn IT Network & Security Consultant T: +61 2 61402408 M: +61 404072753 mailto:k...@holburn.net aim://kimholburn skype://kholburn - PGP Public Key on request _______________________________________________ Link mailing list Link@mailman.anu.edu.au http://mailman.anu.edu.au/mailman/listinfo/link
