Bertie Ahern wants to throw out the 'stupid ol' pencils,' and bring in electronic voting. But we would be stupider than the pencils if we fall for this.

The Australian Minister for Communications, Helen Coonan, buoyed by her recent success in eliminating media diversity in Oz is now targeting the most diverse (content) medium on the planet – the internet.
