Boy, are you going for the Moron of the Year award in '99? Lookin good Eddy -- "Feelin good Todd". Let's see, The " current " is the electorate. The " base " is present democratic system. The " emitter " is the ruling party. The " collector " is the electorate again. Here is the circuit using a simple inverter: -----------------------------Vcc \| \| / \|---------------------> OUTPUT (inverted) \R1 / collector / \|/ -> ----------\| I \| base \|\ N \ \ emitter P /R2 \| U \ \| T \|------------------------ Ground ------- To follow your analogy, the rail voltage is the electorate, the controlling signal is the present democratic system and the circuit output is the electorate again. Don't make no sense to me. Neither does the rest of your diatribe. Try to take a few sophomore level classes in Electrical Engineering and Political Science before you try to combine them.

Mr. Malaprop of the Esperantists... Eddy, Sometimes I think I understand you. But not always. For when you write: "The elected have to stop urinating on the heads of the electorate and selling it as acid free rain!" Is this? A. A plea for truth in advertising? B. A warning that swindlers often come cloaked as environmentalists C. A surreal comment on holistic urinalysis (http://www.quackwatch.com/01QuackeryRelatedTopics/Tests/reams.html) that is yet another example of the needs of the electorate to participate in even the most nefarious profits accumulated by their leaders And while I shudder at this vision "Politicians as we know them today will be become absolute.", could it be that you actually meant to write "obsolete"? If so, may I surmise that your philosophy is loosely based on pragmatism: "Corruption will always be present among the elected so why not tax it." Certainly, this thought deserves it's chance to reach a "proper axiomatic orbit" And I can offer no lofty alternative (at least today). Regards, Michael
