I'm a Californian.

I am so sorry--for you, Jim Robinson and many other FReepers suffering from this affliction. You all appear to have recovered very nicely though, in spite of your handicap.

As for lists: I don't want my name on any list; not even the list of names not to be on any list. Or list of names that have come off a list.

I'm holding my nose this November and voting. Our polling place is the Sewage Treatment Plant.

I didn't create the list for anyone but myself. I don't plan to post it or share it unless someone I know well as a FReeper asks really nicely. So you're on the list whether you like it or not.

The list is about knowing how many of us there really are as opposed to how many it looks like there are. And people who know me via FR know they can trust me when I say, "Hey, there are 180 of us or damned close." If some folks don't believe me, that's their problem. But I know how heartening it is to be able to tell FRiends, "Hey, there's not just a handful of us, there's 15 dozen of us at least." It's good for morale, especially becaue it's true.

I'll take you off the list when I read you say you're planning to hold your nose and vote for Coke in order to get rid of Pepsi, or the equivalent.

Yours was one of the first names on the list, and it doesn't even have a question mark behind it, so reading your post just now gave me a bit of a fright.

But: So, I have been un-thrilled with Republican party Presidential candidates for most of my voting life but I've gone along with the flow...until now, posted by you a little more than a week ago, and this ...

I also will be voting for many Republicans this November. But a few of us on this forum, including the owner/operator, find more than enough faults with the apparent Republican nominee and are constrained to vote for someone other than this (pre-selected) nominee.

... which you wrote not even two weeks ago.

The list remains at 180.
