[R-390] Nice Boatanchor!!

[mfisch at kent.edu]

I think you are all lucky.  I got a touch screen and then they printed 
out the results on a continuous roll  with what looked like a thermal 
printer. Maybe my vote will be counted as I made it, but ... The 
boatanchors are old and relaible, and I wish I voted at one.  I too 
voted in the BA one of the first times I voted.  Even punch carda are 
better than the system I had today.  Turn it over and look for hanging 
chads- did that for years too.
