Bev--in another thread I argued for a possible cryptographic voting solution based on ideas put forth by Bruce Schneier in his book, "Applied Cryptography". Schneier, as you probably know, is arguably the world's leading authority on computer security.

In Schneier's new book, "Beyond Fear: Thinking Sensibly About Security in an Uncertain World" he comes out against computer voting in no uncertain terms:

"Replacing paper ballots with computerized voting machines is a horrendously dangerous idea."
