HAWAII CALLS FOR VOTES ON STATE QUARTER DESIGN

"The Hawai'i Commemorative Quarter Advisory Commission announced 
... it is seeking the public's opinion on design of the special 
state quarter.

"The five designs submitted to the United States Mint were approved 
last week by Secretary of the Treasury, Henry M. Paulson, Jr. The 
commission will consider public opinion on the proposed designs before 
making its final recommendation to Gov. Linda Lingle."

[Voting closes April 18th. Although intended for input from Hawaiian 
citizens, the voting is open to all. Check it out, and if you have a 
strong opinion, place your vote! 

My pick is number three, hands down. The "Diamond Head" design is 
clean and uncluttered. It features two classic icons of Hawaii - the 
famous west profile of Diamond Head and the full statue of King Kamehameha, 
along with the word "aloha." It does NOT have the outline of the state, 
or a schlocky surfer or Hula dancer. -Editor]
