A question for "Molinari" - completely off-topic from the poll or websites in general: 
What is the origin of the coin the photo of which you use as your avatar?
Is that "MASSALIA" I'm reading above the man-headed bull?
Thanks,

Mark

Looks like that thumbnail image is a coin of
Sicily, Sileraioi, overstruck on a Litra of Syracuse.
In fact, here it is:

Nice piece!

You're reading "SILERAIWN" retrograde as MASSALIA.

Here's a wikipedia entry I'm working on about the Sileraioi:

Glad you like the coin, it's my favorite :)

The by-laws say late December but we might adjust those to have the polls open longer.

As soon as all the committee members have voted in the preliminary poll I will notify the finalists and announce the date the final polls open.
