Mark Anderson replies: I probably will vote for Miller. I hadn't really thought about the issue of her being dropping off the school board before, but if anything, that would tend to reinforce my vote. I kind of like the idea of periodic turnover on the Board, not lifetime positions, a la Judy Farmer. I think short-term legislators can devote more energy to fixing problems, because they can just drop out when they burn out. Mark V Anderson Bancroft REMINDERS: 1.
