    Thanks, Frank.  It helps a lot.  Do you remember who did the ballot layout
    for the demonstration?  What do you and the other sales people think of the
    importance of this feature (read:  what kind of raise am I going to get from
    all the added sales)?  Is it a statute that demands this layout, or do these
    New England states just like it that way because of their lever machine
    equipment?  I hear there is a "full face" statute that all races be on one
    side of the ballot in New York at least.

    Are all these states handled through dealers?  Is it reasonable that these
    ballots be layed out manually?  What are our competitors doing in these
    states for ballot layout?

    Sorry for all the questions, but I didn't have any idea they did it this way
    back east until yesterday, and I don't really know where to put this in the
    priority queue currently.

    Ken
