My personal feeling was: fine, he did a great job of staging the summer Olympics (without a deficit, even) but that isn't *Man of the Year* material. What I was more interested in is who the folks on the net should be *Man of the Year*. So I'm conducting a little survey; the one question is: Who should be USENET's *Person of the Year*, and why? Please mail your responses to me at one of the paths shown below, and please keep them short. I will wait until 1 February to post a summary of these responses to this newsgroup.. -- ------------------------------------------------------------------- Henry C.
