Re[2]: Ordinary life ([ga] Ballot question)

[William X Walsh <william@userfriendly.com>]

I certainly hope you weren't apologizing, and I certainly hope no one
was being critical of the response time here.

You have no reason to apologize for response time on this, and anyone
criticizing you is way out of line.

After all, it was only about 24 hours between Danny's post and the
ballots going out.

If anyone was criticizing you about that, they need to have their head
examined.
