Web Pioneers on the Ballot?

Wow, how do some of the key pioneers of the web have time to fun for elected positions in Arizona? Among the piles of colorful signs crowding every street corner, I have seen some familiar names pop out on the ballot for November 2...

Is Eric Meyer, who's books and web sites have paved the way for many like me to learn CSS-- is he running for the Scottsdale School Board?

And wow... can Tim Bray, the architect of XML and many other ideas that power the web be running for the Central Arizona Water Conservation District?

Amazing ;-) Among the other names there- did that Bush guy or Kerry dude have anything to do with the web?? Get out there and vote for your favorite, web gurus or not...

I think that Zeldman dude is a famous web geek too.

Liza-

No joke, there is "a" Tim Bray on our ballot- I do not think Dr. XML has a copyright on the name.

Most of what I write is not meant fior literal consumption.
