Re: [atlarge-discuss] The issue of non-voting panelists

I totally agree... with the addition that on this basis a renegade panelist
could 'get away' with a 33% voting record by voting once in three votes, so
I think all panelists should be bound to vote 75% of the time, in addition
to the three strikes and you're out rule!
