Thank you, le nubian. As noted, the ballot was plenty good enough for people to get what they really wanted. There was a definite preference expressed, and it was a tricky juggle all the way through. I really appreciate the time and conscientous effort you put into it.

I don't know what the random quote generator is, except for the ones from the shows in the upper-right. What is it? But yes, please do change my username there too. For consistency, the hobgoblin of my little mind.
