Re: I'm Disappointed In The Membership
That's no reflection on Kurt. There are so many posts on the Forum, chances are that whatever you post is only going to be seen by a small fraction of the membership. The majority of members don't know there's anything to vote for.Richard Damron wrote:...We have almost 13,000 members and yet we can only muster some 1500 votes for Kurt?...
Actually, given the chances of missing it, 1,500 votes is pretty good.
By the way, don't forget to answer the mathematics question, or your vote won't be counted.

I've been out of town (and away from the computer) for the past two weeks but made sure my wife knew how to vote, including the bonus vote, each day. She would vote, pass the bonus question answer to our friends and family, and occasionally post the answer on here. I admit I did not have her keep the Kurt thread at the top on Corvette Forum also, but hopefully I can get that one active again now that I'm back.
That said, we need to do all we can to keep Kurt as near the top as possible. I saw something which suggested the winner will be chosen from among the top 5, not necessarily the very top vote getter. I'm not sure if that's accurate. And sometimes, when a thing like this gets publicity,some random benefactor is moved to make a donation to the runner-up or some other contestant. Yes,there is one girl with over 17,000 votes so far, but the higher the profile we gave give Kurt the better. Don't give up just because others are way ahead.
I'm going to see if I can get some local attention in our newspaper for this contest. But in the meantime, let's all keep plugging away with our two a day. Hey, you never know!
