Fred: So you don't worry that it's possible for someone to send out a biological or electronic trigger that effectively overrides your own sense of ideals and values and replaces them with an alternative coercive agenda that reduces you to a mindless meat puppet? Shopkeeper: Wow. People used to think that I was paranoid.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

I double checked the vote page just to make sure things are going to votes@buffistas.org. Have you tried sending yourself an email to that address, Deena? It would be helpful to debug whatever the problem is.

How are you me? You need to stop that. Only I can be me. ~Kara

I've gotten e-mail from me and from Julie at that address -- when I voted, it sent my copy of the ballot there with no problem, and from Elena at my other address, but same ISP.

I also e-mailed the stompies from that address, but Plei says she hasn't gotten anything and thinks it might be a mail problem from the buffista end.

Right, but have you gotten mail that was sent to "votes@buffistas.org"? What address did Elena use? And when you voted, you should have gotten two copies, since everyone who votes gets a copy sent to themselves.

Thanks for all the fish.

I voted to 'votes' and sent a personal message to Deena's regular e-mail (not having to do with votes).

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

I just voted, and checked email, I got notification of my vote. So Deena should be getting a ballot from me.

Jon, I sent test mail to the votes address.

I did notice that she sent mail to the admins, but there wasn't anything in the admin box. (Unless you already saw and filed it.)

I got the notification of my vote, but I did not get the ballot itself. I got a copy of Julie's notification because she forwarded it to me. That's it.

Sounds like my test mail went through. Hmm.

Why do you say that?
