Folks-- Bob is being mean again and I feel so bad! However, since Bob says 
he "doesn't care"
about don being on the list or not, I'll take that as a "yes" to having him 
reinstated. So Mike, I've only had one "anti-reinstate so far. You'd better 
get some of your people out to the polls because right now only connie 
supports you, and she may be wavering since I explained to her that the 
issue is list-master abuse of power, not the color of the flag you wave.
