Well, I have been accused of being a sexist pig more than once over the 
years. 8-/. In point, women in general, doing just about anything at all 
fascinate me. Voting included. All us ugly males are a waste of visual 
realestate, and and we seem to vote just about as poorly as we look.

I should have figured this crowd would see how weakly worded that was, but 
I was attempting to use what I think was quote from a Supreme Court ruling 
years ago, and wanted to forstall wisecracks about "ignoring women" or 
some such. Guess I was trying too hard...

Now if somebody can suggest a way of requiring voters to use their best 
mind, and not so much a heart and or their gonads, I'd love to hear it.
