[Vision2020] Tom, Gone?

I believe the original poll was a tongue-in-cheek attempt to get Tom to
change his behavior with regards to the number of posts he makes in a day.
I don't think it was actually an attempt to force a name change on anyone.

It would appear he succeeded in his attempt to change Tom's behavior,
probably more than he ever intended.
