No, mom did not vote this time. I forgot to remind her. :(

What's important to me is that I created it, I use it, and when I'm through 
with it I can delete it.

Interestingly, your obstinate and obstructionist "technical" argument over 
what everyone else can recognize as a trivial matter reminds me of my first 
experience with running for public office. While I was to be 21 by the day 
of election and therefore qualified to run, shy of that day community 
officials obstructionistly declined me access to the community's public 
records using the excuse that I was not yet 21. :)

So I obtained my parents' power of attorney to examine the very same 
records. Question: Was it my parents looking at the public records, or was 
it I? By your argument it obviously had to have been my parents, because I 
was not yet 21. :)

You (and everyone else has) have had the opportunity to examine scans of my 
driver license and passport, and have not challenged them as being altered. 
Therefore I must assume that you find them acceptable.

Martha and Jeff also submitted driver licenses, which all of us were 
satisfied too were not altered. We each submitted photos as well. Martha 
went the extra and creative distance of creating a montage against the 
background of a recent edition of the New York Times.

I repeat my unanswered question: "When will those of us on this new 
provisional committee have that opportunity?"
