Of course, it will be bigger [and more important] than Bush v Gore.

If final winning tally is by 6 votes or less, will the Supreme Court be called in to settle this?
Have to go through the regional and state courts first.

The Machine Stops is a fantastic story written in 1909, which predicts a kind of (pneumatic) internet. Couldn't put it down. Inherit The Stars is another fav of mine but voted for Forster instead.

Most definitely is. I would love to read it again and discuss it (it's probably at least 12-13 years since I read it last).

I usually run the poll for 7 days... Nate only had set it up for 4... so I extended it to 7 days. I want to make sure everyone gets to vote since alot of people were away for the holiday.

Keep the votes coming, folks!

Don (The Moderator Dude)

_____________


May the Dome Be With You!

Vote for Under The Dome! This is NOT your everyday Cone of Silence, my "Smart" friends.

"'Twas the Night Before The Dome
And all through the House,
Ole Junior was stirring,
With a Knife under his Blouse!"

(He was a cross-dresser! Creative License....to kill! )

If you want to read The Real Thing, then get off your culo, and VOTE for UNDER THE DOME, amigo!
