Rabid 'shipper that I am, I've been following the progress of our current poll with some small measure of interest - and have found myself quite surprised by the results so far. While I did expect a large number of people to click the 'wait and see' option, I was rather taken aback to discover that more people are really looking forward to it than there are of people like me who have a bad - and somewhat nauseous - gut feeling about the whole thing. It's not by much, but it really does make me wonder - whatever happened to everyone believing what I thought they should. I mean, come on. You'll all meant to agree with me. It's not fair that you don't.
