Yo Chris,

You are one zillion percent perzackly rite. Those who don't vote must

accept the results without comment.

There have been many occasions where American elections have been

determined by a percent or two .. we saw that in the last Presidential

election. And considering that I voted via Absentee Ballot, and they

were allowed to be counted after the polls closed, I'll always believe

that it was MY VOTE that turned the tide. ;-9

And for those who have studied American history, you will know that the

TOTAL cause for the colonies to rebel against King George was the fact

that they were not allowed representation in the House of Commons .. so

they refused to accept taxation without representation. Nothing I know

of has changed .. we need to put our freedom of choice into play even

though we might not like the outcome. Butch
