All the best, Chris Not sure this is a recent phenomenon; I seem to remember during the late sixties a student representative, standing for election on a platform of total apathy; the deal was if you voted for him he wouldn't bother you, or even call you apathetic @#$%^& 's ; from memory he did very well !
Chris's concern, as I read it, is that, nowadays, the apathetic (among the students in this case) wouldn't even bother to vote, much less to vote for the "apathy party" candidate.
