For those arguing that it is somehow legitimate to count an absentia vote as a vote in the affirmative... let's put that theory to a real world, common sense test.

No training is going to slow a juicer down, its just not going to happen.
No juicer could live long enough to learn TKB, so it's irrelevant.

Go skydiving sometime. They tell you that your rate of decent is 120mph.

1 point for every 20 feet doesn't make much sense. Considering that terminal velocity for a falling human is about 120MPH a fall from 500 feet or 1 mile would basically be the same. 32feet per second, per second means a person should reach terminal velocity in about 4 seconds.
