Hello Chuck,
FWIW, I voted and my vote was accepted and I am not an American.
Therefore the poll accepts Canadians into the ballot box! Hmmnn now
what can we do about Mr. Clinton?? How many more Canadians voted
I wonder?
It is interesting that the country of Japan has issued only some 300
permits for the entire country allowing for their use. Yet they export
like crazy but don't allow them at home. They are otherwise restricted.
Cheers,
Philip Wylie
