If (as Geoff says) there are thousands of people on this list,
an on-list vote is not an efficient way to handle a hyphenation
question.
When you want a range of opinions because you don't trust
your dictionary (and these days, you're not necessarily
presumptuous to mistrust it), it's best to request that the
simple opinions come to your own e-mail address, to be summarized
by you on-list later. Of course, on-list discussion is an
excellent thing, but simply posting "I vote for this" and
"I vote for that" is not discussion.
