That story was so horrifying, my marrow just froze. Good idea and well done.
@alexphoto. I've mailed my ballot for Obama from Kyoto. Most of us who live abroad have a "wider" view of the U.S. that puts a little more emphasis on international relations and global issues, so we *tend* to be liberal democrats. But remember that the U.S. is huge, with vast geographical areas of provincial people who don't hold passports (Sarah Palin until recently), and our electoral system gives these areas with very sparse populations proportionally more power in presidential elections, to keep the cosmopolitan areas from running away with power.
(also, the voting machines are rigged. Bring back paper ballots!) </off topic>
Loved the movie!
