How much time did you spend, for the most recent once-every-four-years vote researching the #1 issue in that election? How about the #2 issue? I'd see the 'election day every day' world as either a world where no one bothers to research anything before firing off a vote or a world paralyzed by an electorate that pases laws today based on the color of Katie Couric's blouse and rescinds them tomorrow on the forecast of light rain.. It's perhaps worth study, but I'll venture not likely to happen in my lifetime. -- Steve Holton [EMAIL PROTECTED] "Convenience causes blindness.
