      I won't hold you to to  "final and complete" !  :)<br>
      <br>
      I share Kevin's attitude. Your contribution to the analysis and
      discussion of single-winner <br>
      election methods has (on balance) been overwhelmingly positive.<br>
      <br>
      You taught me a few a things and helped stimulate a lot of my
      thinking on the subject.<br>
