and, if you are a computer geek, scroll down, because the publisher of this news outlet has, for the first time, made THE ENTIRE 40,000 DIEBOLD FILES available to the world, and has backups waiting in the wings. Let's synchronize our watches now -- we'll see how long his site holds up to what is sure to be an onslaught of corporate fury.

Several other web owners have got his back on this, and are putting up their own repository of the full 40,000 files. Will you?

For an illustrated journey through the innards of a real vote-counting program, go here:

-- Caveats abound, and yes, this is just an example with a test file, but it is using the real, certified version of the Diebold vote-counting program, and it is using a test file created by Diebold. No, in my opinion it's not the biggest story in the world. Yet. It's a neonate, but already being nourished with new SPECIFIC information on what's really going on in the tight-lipped fat-walleted world of voting machines.

Get there before it's gone, folks, and if you are a blogger, or know a website owner, note the emphasis at the top -- these articles are to be shared as widely and as quickly as possible, and there are more coming immediately on the heels of this, and there will absolutely be an effort to shut this stuff up.

This has already gone out to a select list of journalists. We are following the tradition of what has WORKED: First, the Internet. Rolling out to one set of media after the next. It has begun.
