"vote for one" poll would be fine. Any last thoughts on this before I
setup the final vote? I think I will just set up a time limit on this
poll (one week maybe?) so as to not extend it out any further than
needed.

were all either taken or completely open. So when I do the poll, I
will put a note at the end of each choice saying if it was taken or
not. that way when we vote we can decide if it is worth complicating
the name or not. If anyone doesn't like this idea, let me know
immediately so we can work it out before I open the poll. BTW, I
ignored the .ws and .tv domains in this, because they piss me off for
some reason, and I don't think people pay as much attention to them.

What the hell _are_ .ws and .tv domains, anyway?

Sounds to me like you have it all under control. Maybe let everybody
have up to 3 votes? And thanks for spending the time to do all this.

due to the fact that I don't understabd much of it on a technical
level. Could someone(s) email me directly and help me with this? I
would rather not put something out on the site that might not be
accurate. I think the list blocks out email addys so my email address
is ljdarten_at_hotmail.com . If you use the list on the web site (as apposed to
through email) you can click reply to this message and the to: field
will have a pull down list, one of them being me.
