flogging a dead horse

aaaaaaarrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrggggggggggggggggggg!

i just had a great big long post, that i had in word, so that i wouldn't lose it, and then my stupid computer crashed, and there is no recovered document in word and, and, and, well, aaaarrrrrrrrrrrggggggggggggggg!

so, here's the gist of my (very long, and of course very articulate *grin*) post in a few (not articulate at all) sentences :

election over. move on. work within the system, much easier to affect change from within than from outside. don't come forward with stuff until there is solid evidence, right now things like "kerry won ohio" coming out of truthout come off a bit like crying wolf, if there ever is evidence, a huge number of people will tune it out as more proselytizing. remember you need hard facts, not suppositions (no matter how accurate they may be) because the people you need to convince are a hard lot to crack.

okay, that's all the energy i have now. i promise it was a good entry. and long. and it even had some funny bits. oh well, another time...
