[EM] cyclic ballots

[James Green-Armytage]

Paul,
	Perhaps I'm mistaken, but I don't think that you are genuinely replying
to many of the messages which you are ostensibly replying to. In this
case, you continue to speak about axiology when my post was about
addressing practical problems. Hence, it's a non-reply.

Sincerely,
James
