A decent amount of movement here this week.  There isn't really that much of a consensus up top either.  Makes for lots of discussion options.

We are likely going to be welcoming a new voter in our poll next week.  As always, we are open to adding more voters if anyone is interested.  From the discussion the last few weeks, it doesn't look like you'll get ripped too hard (unless your name is mikeville).
