Subject:      Ken removes sticker page
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="US-ASCII"

I just clicked my link to the sticker page too see if any changes had been made by the finalists and found that Ken has closed the pages do to the apathy and basic lack of interest he's noticed (my interpretation of his words please go to the site to check his exact comments) in comments on the list.

Ken has worked long and hard on this and I can understand his frustration. People complaining about to much sticker mail, when we have interminable optima battery strings and other nonsense Friday strings that go on ad infinitum.

Ken was trying to be fair and give every one a voice in the design and found the basic problem in trying to do things by comity, to many opinions not enough action.

Thanks Ken for giving it a try some of us wanted this. I think you and Ron should split the prizes. As for voter apathy you can see what that has done for our choices for president over the last couple of decades. It would be nice if Bush and Gore would make the same choice Ken has. I've always wanted a None of The Above option on the presidential ballot. Remember if you don't vote don't bitch.
