donquixote99,

I feel your pain. Everyone wants to have a say. Republicans, Democrats, Women, Men, Chinese, Indian, Native American Indian, Stereotypical Mustachioed Mexican, Successful Mexican Soccer Player, Tire Mounter, Tire Maker, the list making goes on Ad infinitum in search of popular votes.

My opinion might be more succinctly stated as this -- the list makers and their profiteers, most importantly their profiteers, need to articulate what it is that they are trying to build and why future generations would want to maintain that. They need to be articulate in the time dimension of beauty. I am fatigued of the flashes in their pans.

I appreciate your want for 15 problems instead of 16. All I ask of you is to tolerate my vote against Prop 2. In my software-writing experience with Cartesian thought the common outcome has been that when one bug gets killed then two come to its funeral. If that is statistically true then Prop 2 will not reduce 16 to 15, but rather grow to 17.

This voting stuff is hard. Thanks for having a spine.

Peace!
