    So this is happening[/url]. If any of the Threadizens are inclined to make a blog post (or three) in support, I'd be appreciative.

    Were it not for the total incompetence of whoever handles registrations as PASS member in the UK, I would vote for you but as it stands, despite having been told by the PASS (UK, LONDON) website that I was a member 6 years ago, it turned out that I was not a member, so not eligible to vote. I'm not terribly surprised, since I had not a single communication from PASS since my membership was confirmed, a bit over six years ago, and never found anything on the UK website. The website for the London branch (which claimed it ws thE pass uk WEBSITE) has moved (again no notification) to a new URL, and my login no longer works (it did last time I tried, a few years ago, on the old website, before I concluded that PASS UK was a complete nonentity). I've registered again today, and can log in at the main website, but why should I believed that I will still be able to do so tomorrow? Maybe if you are elected you can do someting to eliminate this sort of organisational nonsense?

    Yikes. We'll see.
