Low voter turnout

Last week in Alberta was another provincial election. It was called, of course, to most advantegeously benefit the ruling Progressive Conservative Party, effectively blunting the emerging liberty oriented Wildrose Alliance Party. And that was accomplished by ~59% of the voting eligible public not being bothered to get and vote. Despite the low turnout, I am not in favour of mandatory voting. We should also be able to not vote, a political statement in and of itself.

On with it then!

Technology- as an IT professional I regularly come across people very intimidated by computers and what they do.

I will try to have ta technology tip as a semi-regular feature.
