I am not...I am not the damsel in distress. I am not some case. I have to work this. I've lived in a cave for 5 years in a world where they killed my kind like cattle. I am not going to be cut down by some monster flu. I am better than that. What a wonder...how very scared I am.

Mea culpa.

Not maxima, though. Gotta draw the line somewhere.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

How long is this poll going to be up? Not that my input would be useful, but I'm going to be offline for the next three days.

I had said 24 hours for comment then re-vised and I was think the new improved would go up on Monday for actual polling.

I'm going to be gone all of next week. Can I have someone answer for me somehow?

Or maybe I could get online somewhere. How long will the poll stay up?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Several days, anyway, I'd hope. I can't see it being shorter than our voting period.
