grab your calculator: Next Friday at 4:49 p.m. start counting out loud to 1.7 million. See if you make it by Tuesday's deadline! It's easy if you use IBM's definition of a man-year: 730 people getting it done before lunch.

PT, Sounds to me like voter apathy in Democrat land. Do the math. How long would it take 1,700 people to each count 1,000 votes? Dems couldn't find that many volunteers in their party. How sad.

I guess I can keep going on this subject forevever. Hopefully soon you will understand. "Friday = day three (72 hours) NOTE: handcount request made!" Whose fault is it that they waited until the last minute? Is that Bush's fault? NO! It was a tactical mistake by GORE'S lawyers. "Try this, Srexley--grab your calculator: Next Friday at 4:49 p.m. start counting out loud to 1.7 million." Smartass comment from someone that I am having less and less respect for. They can use as many counters as necesary. As far as I know (don't call me a liar, lawdog) there is no limitation on how many couters you use. Your argument seems to indicate that you think it is 1 counter. That does show why you think it is impossible. Mystery solved!
