I'm not sure I agree Brent (there are lots of reasons that people don't vote
in american politics) but, I did vote. I think it is fun to participate in
these types of things. Its necessary to show support of others time and
effort. One thing that surprises me is the "filters" talk that goes on. I
have no filters running and I try to read everyone's mail. I find it
refreshing and VERY interesting to hear (and observe) opinions on all the
different subjects (and sometimes emotional responses, good and bad). It is
ideal for learning a little about people. It also reminds me that individual
thought is everywhere. Of course I guess I do have one filter, and that is
the subject line. I read it and decide if I want to open it or not. Like
everyone else I only have so much time in the day.
