      Let’s hope there’s more than just “thinking” spring by the end of April!

      This event has possibilities for us IF there is no talk about . . . you know . . . those three unspeakable letters.

                We get audio and visual hiccups, too, and we have cable. But we’re 80 miles or so from the nearest TV station, so the cable company could be receiving the “hiccups” over the distance.

                And we’re not really getting DTV because we don’t have upgraded lines in our area, so the cable company steps everything down to analog so that no one needs a converter box. Did a rescan yesterday just in case, but still got the same old 38 analog stations and 0 digital ones.

                  For now, I’m more worried about losing dibs on last place again, but that could change with a little luck on Grcarlson’s part. Pulling for a find for him!

                  Just passed you for February! 😈 Barring further Sagasu action, no tie with you for last place this month!

                    One thing that might be interesting to check out … of those 40+ new members in January … how many of them seem to “stick around” after voting. In other words, then ones that appeared a little more than a year ago as adds in January … how many of them have “chimed in” in the Forums in the months to follow, or started showing other signs of actually existing as a destinct individual/team (such as finding caches under the newly appearing name).

                    It happens…I’m one: 1/18/2008. I think I voted in last year’s election because I read the candidates’ corner, mainly because I wanted to see what went on in the WGA. I’m not sure if I voted for a full slate, though.

                    If there were 40+ who joined last January, only five are listed now with the 1/2008 date (re-sort by date joined). I’m assuming that if you don’t renew your membership, you are dropped from the list.

                    NOTE: If we require knowledge of candidates and issues before a vote is cast, not too many people would be voting in this country…

                    NOTE: There is now registration in Wisconsin, although you can register at the polls when you go to vote. ID is required, and information is eventually checked.

                    Guess I’m sitting on the fence on this one. Voter irregularities have more impact when the voting population is small, although the above-mentioned MN senate race and the 2000 presidential election are two cases where huge voter turnouts produced very tight races.

                                  A new addict, plus a lot of new names in contention. Have some of the “old” ones run out of steam or are they just being polite to share the wealth and glory?

                                  Can’t wait to see what emerges in March with the new list of Lonely Caches.
