Plan B's Person of the Year Award - OOPS! I forgot Alice....

[Sue U]

Tough choice but I vote for alice. She says more in her few posts, with more humanity, than all the rest of us combined.

[MajGenl.Meade]

"Your'e" Swede? Understand your second language would be better.

"Your'e" Swede? Understand your second language would be better.

Think Mark Twain and the attempt to render accented vernacular phonetically. "Your'e" in Swedespeak = "Your a".


Its a YOKE! py Yimminy!

"by Jimmy Jenson" wasn't enough of a clue?


yrs,
rubato

[oldr_n_wsr]

alice is a good choice but is very short on appearences. I will have to go with SueU with BigRR a close second. Both post thoughtfully and with knowledge and fact and with civility. Plus both are here in the NorthEast like me. Sue U gets the tiebreaker on having more posts.
I did not vote in the poll so take this post as my vote.

[Lord Jim]

So after Day One, we have oldr in the lead, with Sue and rube nipping at his heels...

(So to speak... )

[Guinevere]

So, Guin is chopped liver now?

God no, please. I don't eat liver, chopped or otherwise.

Can I be chopped lobster? Or maybe rock lobster <<cue the B52s>> see what happens to the lawyer when she doesn't sleep . . .

I don't know who I'd vote for -- too many people I enjoy to pick just one.

[Big RR]

I'm with Guin on this, just picking one person from the many whose posts I enjoy is nearly impossible. It's the large diversity of posters and of posts that makes this place what it is.

[Joe Guy]

Holy Shiite Guin & RR!!!

This is not rocket brain litigation! You are not choosing someone who you think is better than everyone else or more popular. The idea is to pick one person you think has had a meaningful impact on Plan B this year!

If the people at Time Magazine were like you two there would be no Person of the Year. They would have an annual Group Hug edition.

You don't have to say who you vote for. Just vote.

It's the American way!

[Lord Jim]

That's right, if it's the same sort of criteria as the Time Person Of The Year, it doesn't necessarily have to be some one you like, or even someone you thought had a good impact...

[Big RR]

Understood; I just can't narrow it down to one person. For others that can, I salute them.

[Joe Guy]

Would you vote if you could vote for two people?

[dales]

I voted for myself.

[Joe Guy]

Good for you.

Now you're tied for third place. You are allowed to make a stump speech.

[Big RR]

Would you vote if you could vote for two people?

Perhaps, perhaps not; I'll have to ponder it. My biggest problem is picking the person (or persons) having the most meaningful impact, positive or negative.

[Crackpot]

I refuse to vote until someone votes for me

[Joe Guy]

I tried to change the poll in order to allow 2 votes per person but when I preview it, it looks like all of the existing votes will be wiped out. I don't want to try that if that will happen.

Does anyone have any thoughts on that? Is it just the preview that shows no votes?

[Gob]

Rubato as the Edward Snowdon of the group

[Big RR]

Joe--don't change it just for me; I'm happy to leave it as it is. If people want to vote for more than one person, perhaps they could include it in their comments. the comments are interesting thus far.

[Lord Jim]

I also do like the idea of being able to vote for two...

Personally I don't think if you re-set the poll that people who have already voted wouldn't vote again. (And you can still continue to include the votes that have been cast so far in the comments)

[Joe Guy]

Okay. I'll wait about an hour or so (depending on my schedule it could be much longer) for more comments on whether or not I should go back and change the poll to allow 2 posts.
