A very good point, I was able to drive up the votes on one trending motion through various routes.

Are you aware that you can vote multiple times on any topic? On HR 292, by clicking through the links on the Trending Motions, and relogging on via Facebook and Google+, I was able to drive up support by 5 votes.

If I kept it up, I could have done it indefinitely.

Good use of the official disclaimer there! RPCV Kyrgyzstan 2005 - 2007 here. One year in? Keep it up! You are almost there! Here's what I wish I could have done during my service, I wish during my last year I could have concentrated more on the fact that I was getting to experience what I did. Unfortunately, my place was broken into and my hidden US cash was stolen (sigh) and then two weeks later there was an earthquake that cracked my mud brick hut in half (during the winter). My last 6 weeks in country (the start of my third winter there) saw absolutely electricity in my village and because I was leaving, I hadn't bought winter coal. Still, by my first summer of graduate school, I was desperately missing my village and went back for my thesis research. Keep up the hard work! Focus on your projects! And remember, it will probably get worse. Then remember, you can leave, but they can't.
