Please don't think I missed the importance of this fact. The details
of the count were unimportant compared to what this says about how
the perceived level of vigorous argument may actually be an artifact
of a few outliers. I actually only posted thinking that there might
be a bug in your counting algorithm... I still believe that in the
end Guido will wind up finding a way to extract a reasonable decision
from this mess, although I have a hard time seeing how he'll manage
that! Knowing that a few individuals account for a lot of the "noise"
may help him.
