Brian,

  An elephant?  Boy, I dunno. 

  Aren't those guys generally acknowledged to have the largest footprint 
in the animal kingdom? Not a real good feature for an OpenSolaris avatar.

  Then too, there's the danger that we might be ticking off all the 
Democrats

 
  This is tougher than I thought it'd be.  Does it make sense to select 
maybe 6 candidates and have a vote?  Perhaps we could drum up some wider 
interest with a webcast ... something like those gawd-awful presidential 
debates ("raise you hand if you are an omnivore"?)

Regards,

Ronk
