Can't we just use the cut-through method instead of this tedious store and
forward method of ballot counting?

Hey!!  We're counting votes as well as we can down here.we're not fast 
counters, no, but we're not slow counters either. So that makes us all in a 
state of half-fast vote counters determing the leadership of a powerful 
nation.  I like that. ~~

2000-11-10 Thread Rodgers Moore

Cut-through works great, but one of the users apparently got paranoid and
wasn't sure everything was working right, see the application software
didn't give out the result he wanted, so he requested Store-and-forward as
it is less prone to "error" or irregularities.  It turns out that
store-and-forward did work a little differently and the application software
results were suddenly much closer to what he really wanted, so he complained
clamorously, got friends and co-workers to to throw a fit that sneaker net
was the way to go, assuming that it would cause the software to give the
exact result he wanted.  Alas, we are now using sneaker net.  Despite the
fact that the other 5 users were happy with Cut-through and
Store-and-forward.  Of course, it the midst of all of this, the application
programmers have gotten several bug reports and complaints that the software
is all wrong, somehow it keeps saying 1 + 1 = 2.  That can't be right? can
it?
