there's a weekly poll on the gold price on kitco...as it were, the debate of what to do about last week's poll has begun: Date: Thu Nov 09 2000 15:07 mercury (Scorp 54: i demand a recount in your poll!) Copyright © 2000 mercury/Kitco Inc. All rights reserved I demand the gold poll for this week be recounted! The following reasons apply: 1. price of gold? I thought I was voting on the price of golf. As you know, green fees have been going up recently. 2. Although I didn’t actually, technically, vote in this poll, my representation is obviously lacking and I am being marginalized by big business. I have been historically oppressed ( note: I am incapable of developing a rational, logic-based, defense here, but that only makes me more oppressed ) 3. I am of the understanding ( remember, I do not let facts, logic, nor rule of law, get in the way of my understanding ) that your brother, or some other relation, may have access to the price of golf votes. 4. I think the way you determine the price of golf sux. U shouldn’t base it upon the market value. Everyone knows this is rigged by ‘big business’, those commodity types, the cabal, mickey mouse, etc. rather, the pog should be what I wish, or whatever my lucky lotto numbers for the week are. 5. Why do we even have this stupid ‘vote your price system’ by those with an understanding of golf, markets, pricing, trading etc? I can’t figure it out and it is NOT FAIR! Everyone in the world should be able to have an accurate vote, not just those who can think for themselves. Obviously your poll is a type of hate speech. 6. It looks like I may lose. 7. I am looking for an angle to incur some legal fee payment.
