I am also 69 years old, set up the poll, and attempted to make the
ground rules very clear:

                   *************

"If a majority of the voters are against his being a "moderated member",
I'll withdraw the invitation. If less than half are opposed, he will
become a "moderated member"."

                   *************

"Votes that are cast for "Doesn't matter to me one way or the other"
are essentially a vote in favor of allowing RS to post in a moderated
status."

                   *************

Perhaps I shouldn't have included the "doesn't matter" category, but
it gave me added insight, and those who made this choice were aware
that it was a "pro" vote, and had plenty of time to change their vote
if they wished.

I agree, If its that big a deal, meet at the bicycle rack of your choice at 3:30. By the way I am undecided so I won't be there. VP for me.
