Agreeing with Dan's: "This is Scary..."

I must say that after reading Dan's "This is Scary..." blog I was in complete agreement. In a world with laws and regulations so tight on the American citizens you wouldn't expect that such a simple problem could arise but it has. In 2000 the US found itself in such a dilemma with vote counting that the Diebold voting machines were created as a solution to that problem. They are suppose to provide the voter with a quicker, easier, more accurate vote however in the end they just present us with yet another problem. Dan points all of this out perfectly.
I also absolutely love the fact that Dan brings to light the simple point that one would think that with the level of ATM security being so high, the machine that helps our votes to somewhat count would definitely be a little more secure. However they are not at all, it turns out someone can hack them in one minute. Wow, I have to agree that absolutely is very scary!!
Ultimately Dan wrote a article to present people with facts on the problems with the Diebold voting machines and ended up hitting the nail right on the head!!
