The tanks roll into the blagosphere

Discussions like that will now be moved o'er yonder, assuming the perimeter defense doesn't get sacked.

As you can see, it's still under construction, so some kinks need to be worked out. Generally, be kind to other people, and comment as much as you want. If you contribute singificantly or have insightful things you wish to say, request to be added as an author on this blog.

Also, the poll uses approval voting. My experience as the oralist has led me to believe that it is far superior to any other voting method; sometimes, you just don't have a unidimensional opinion on something.
