For some time now I have lamented the fact that major issues are overlooked while many
unnecessary posts come to me for consideration. Slashvertisements, Bugs, bad posts, good
car analogies are major issues my Administration has brought to the table, but the mods just
kicks the can down the alley.

Yet another techie year has come and gone without the major reforms slashdot readers
overwhlmingly deserve. In light of this and after careful consideration I believe it is
unnecessary to sign this measure at this time
