You know, you could easily sell condorcet to the general public by telling them it's just like American Idol...

It has a certain charm to it, doesn't it? (I think Nader has proposed that, too!) But I don't think you can make Americans vote by just giving them better candidates. Having the feeling that your vote can matter can do it, though.

"By the way, it is still true that non-voters are the majority."

I think the non-voters should be taken into account.
When the majority does not vote, it means the candidates are not acceptible, hence a re-vote.

Nothing special: Just vote for the candidate who is most likely to unseat Bush.

So... what is your recommended strategy, and why is it useful?

That was a bad idea.

You're in luck, Neal, because I am currently writing a new version of the AAD page (for its upcoming 100 album anniversary) using my newly developed futuristic hyper-technological Aphasia 2 language.

Forbes, here I come!
(Wait, AAD was already in Forbes.)

hey you know what else doesn't scale well? The Album-a-day page. Too many albums on one page. I think you should switch to displaying the 20 most recent albums as well as have a complete listing on the artists ranked by number of contributions.

Album-a-day is never going to make the cover of Forbes until it uses dynamic web-programming.

Yes, it looks like it was most likely FAT, since the datasheets talk of a "DOS like FS" layed upon their wear-leveling flash layer. http://www.windriver.com/products/true_ffs/index.html

But I don't think it was due to a hard directory limitation, or problems with FAT. Instead, it appears that the large number of files ran the computer out of available RAM. So while the filesystem was valid, it was unable to be read under the circumstances. You might say that having a system need to read a full directory into RAM doesn't scale. You'd probably be right.

That is quite a software error, though not as bad as simply having a broken filesystem.

I hope so, too.

Fontographer doesn't work on my new computer. I think I actually have *too much* memory!

As long as we're discussing your fonts, I like them too! The best ones are whatever ones can be used for body text (Epilog's my favorite) but I printed out this poster-looking thing of all the Tombats and put it on the wall. Hope you can make more fonts when you aren't too busy!

Hey Tom
I know this is completly off topic but I tried to email you at your tom7@cs..... account and it bounced back. I also sent an email to your AOL account, I hope it finds you. I have a few questions regarding some fonts.
Thanks
