"wiki" has been mentioned - interesting, but I question whether it has the 
best level of control formality.

Some of us could be interested in  Mike or Russ's opinions on 9/11, etc., 
but those do not belong on EM.

Still hope for better selling as to Condorcet.

Wandering around, I get to Elactorama, and wonder how that does, or 
should, fit in.  See RLSuter words against IRV featured there.

Russ told us we have a problem, on EM at Sat, 15 Jan 2005 19:19:21 -0800.

My reading was that conflict between Russ and Mike requires outside input
if EM is to survive and stay useful.

My response was that a committee needs to be created to keep EM going for
the benefit of this community.

Agreed "existing would be an accomplishment" for I know of
nobody responsible for appointing such a committee.
