Well, it seemed to mean something at the time. (If I don't vote in a forest will it not make a non-sound? Don't answer that.)

Strike what I said. Looking back up the line, I notice Bill D said it briefer and better:

"I see why Bruce Phillips refrained from voting in the past, but in his case it was to make a point which probably did more good than his actual vote would have. You & I are not the activists and lightening rods he was...we need to vote."
