Gentlemen, a fellow LBCer has entered an almost-LBC-related endeavor and 
needs our help.  He has entered the Red Bull Soapbox Derby and needs to get 
internet votes for his team to get in the contest on a wild card vote.  Can 
you help?

His plea is below.

Thanks for your help,

Larry Daniels

WildcardVoting


Okay, I feel stupid about sending mail like this, but some guys here in
Seattle and myself decided to entered the Red Bull Soapbox derby at the last
minute.  After minutes of planning, a crack team with specially honed skills
was assembled:

Craig: A guy who will do anything thing no matter how stupid
Me: I was asked because I have  a welder and I joined because I heard they
would have beer
Chris:  When we ran out of brainstorming ideas he was the only guy to answer
his phone
Brad: He was the biggest guy we knew and when we said we were going to strap
in into a cart and send him hurtling down a hill, he said, "Uh, I'm in."

Only about 40 cars get to compete in the race, but somehow in order to get
into the contest, we need votes on the website in order to make it as the
wildcard entry.  You're allowed one vote per person per day until Aug. 8th.




I'm asking you go to
http://www.redbullsoapboxusa.com/Seattle-2007/wildcard.aspx each day and
vote for team "Death Trap" until Aug. 8th and forward this onto anyone who
can help spread the word.



Help make our dreams of creating and racing a giant mousetrap with cheese
down a hill in Fremont Sept. 29th!    Imagine the video: a bunch of drunk
rats with one hurtling to his death or a least an injury.



Thanks,

Bill


PS.  If you have a computer at home and work you can vote twice, help a nerd
out.
