If I had known about the 143(!) page California official voter information guide before, I wouldn't have complained so much about that alleged clean energy proposition that I couldn't find out any detailed information about. It's got quick summaries, more detailed arguments for and against the propositions, and even the full text. The actual text is really nice to have . . . in most cases.

The text of proposition 5 goes on for 20 pages of close spaced type (out of 61 that detail all 12 propositions in this section) and proposition 6 is another 14 of them. I'm tempted to vote against them just for that, but I'm going to set aside the time to plow through them. The only saving grace these things have is that they're revisions of existing codes, so their complexity is at least partially the fault of the codes being modified. I still think we'd be better off with the "Plain Speech Amendment" from Heinlein's "Over The Rainbow--"
