If you recall there was a suggestion by Mr. Monroy that we replace the current
moderator of the c.o.3.a group.  Actually this suggestion of his is nothing
new.  Many of his posts on the subject turned into some pretty silly
threads having little or nothing to do with the original issue in the end (but
then again what thread ever does?)

After several bouts on the issue many people got tired of the whole topic,
myself included.  I suggested that a show of hands might show the kind of
support the present moderator currently has.

Please note, this was in no way an official vote to change anything.  It was
simply to be used as an indicator to the level of support of Mr. Monroy's
idea of replacing the current moderator.

Well, the hands are counted.  I waited many days in hopes that as many people
who wanted to vote could.  I am tired of getting mail so I would like to end
this.

Here are the results:

	39 voted to keep the current moderator.
	 1 voted to replace the current moderator.
	 
Well, I feel safe to say that the current moderator has good support.  I think
this pretty much ends the issue.
