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

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. ???
