I think low participation is just an indication that the previous FESCo 
was doing a good job.  People become complacent when things are going 
well.  Besides that though, think about how hard it is for us to get 
people to rebuild their packages during a mass rebuild.  I guess we'll 
have to see how things are during the next election.
