Suppose that a group of children are trying to decide whether to play
baseball, kickball, football, basketball, jumprope, etc.

They are smart enough to use Paper Scissors Rock to make these kinds of
decisions even when there is a majority in favor of one course of action,
because it yields proportional representation over time, i.e. TPR
(Temporal Proportional Represention).

D- Perhaps the kids are not so smart because they have not seen the postings 
on this list.

Choosing a government leader (such as a U.S.A. President -- a somewhat 
important defender of Western Civilization since 7 Dec 1941 -- Pearl Harbor 
attack) is a WHOLE LOT more important that using Paper Scissors Rock to keep 
some kids happy for a few minutes.

What did Captain Janeway of Star Trek have to say about *temporal* stuff  
???-- it gives me a headache.

What *mathematical* dreams / fantasies are in the minds of some folks on this 
list ???

Some fine fantasy formula (looking for the grand Election Methods unification 
formula ----- something like Newton's laws of gravity -- modified by 
Einstein's observations  --- with now quarks, etc. ???
