lol

I haven't decided on a lot of these yet (except for props 8, 1A, and 4), so thanks for the "food for thought." :-)

I'll probably end up voting yes on prop 2, though. I can't pass up a chance, as a good vegetarian, to pass something like this in the state. Plus, it gives farmers 6 years to prepare for the new law. That seems like enough time to me to start treating animals better.

I have a question for you, however. I'll read the articles of course, but I'm wondering what you think of it as an avid supporter of solar energy. I listened to an NPR interview about it between an opponent and an advocate for it and got very little from it. I'm still trying to make a decision on this one...any insight to give?
