He appears to be teasing me... I guess I can take it.

 Lucy,
 
 What is your opinion on Randy Bush's latest post to the NANOG List?

I wonder, was Randy's message so cryptic that you didn't realize he was
memorializing a fallen comrade?

I wonder why Randy is driven to make everyone of his postings a combined
IQ and trivia test, but since they are so short, I don't see the need to
make a fuss about them. Most people just scratch their heads, ignore
him, and move to the next message.

I would rather see the MLC make a small fuss about people who quote huge
uneccessary amounts of text from the message to which they are replying,
than to bother about Randy's incomprehensible postings.

See? Pretty innocent, and meaningless unless you also saw the stuff here

Voting activity picked up a lot this morning, but if the level of

cast.


Steve asked me to stand up and say something election-rousing after  
Cathy and before the following panel. Hopefully that will help.

Since I've heard from a couple of people who are having problems,  
allow me to channel Betty:



Follow:
To create username and password: https://www.nanog.org/registration/ 
username.epl

or
To have username and password resent: https://www.nanog.org/

If anybody has additional problems, find a friendly Merit person  
(e.g. on the registration desk) or send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

   certainly not meant as a criticism:

   Perhaps what would have helped too, would have been to send a notice
   to nanog-futures _before_ the actual start of the online vote ? 

   The first notice i see on the subject was sent 4 hrs before the
   closing. Too late

Question, I wonder if we can get statistics on how many people who have 
registered at this nanog have voted vs those who are not physically here?

This would help determine if putting a voting desktop outside of main
conference room help increase voting participation?

Also, possibly, instead of posting to -announce, a direct email to
last-registered-email should be sent to each eligible voter reminding them
to vote - Some people who attend aren't on any mailing list. (actually, it
is an interesting data point, but probably impossible to gather correct
data on).
