Small side note Andrew Tanenbaum is an American
citizen living in the Netherlands. During the 2004
U.S. Presidential race Prof. Tanenbaum ran a website
that attempted to track where the U.S. Electoral vote
would end up (with editorial comments on the website
that were negative towards George Bush and positive
towards John Kerry). You can read the tracking website
here:

And Prof. Tanenbaum's autobiography is here:
