Exactly.  They didnt bother to send Ward the full details nor have they sent
them to me.  Both of us knew there was a 'referendum' (vote?) and a very
general 'gist'.

Whats happening is some folks are talking quietly and very privately on the
issue to many of us but we collectively do not have a whole picture. I suspect
Malcolm (who's been sick and is catching up since this weekend) may have the
only 'official' copy of the results.  Then again, he may not have them either.

Fair is fair.  It pisses me off a bit that some take the stance that 'Ward is
guilty' of something this time.  He's totally innocent this time.  He brought
the issue to the ZCC right away as soon as he had some shreds of info.  Z4C
was the first to note the numbers were too low to mean anything should be done
with what little we have.

I am fully aware that most of my own information on this comes from the radical
small percentage.  I do not mind that but I aint dumb.  I believe the other
ZC's are just as wise on this.  Thats the damnable part of the job, that you
sometimes have to accept that what you'd like everyone else to want, aint
happen'n but can be confused easy if all the info you do get direct, is from
the non-mainstream.
