And if they did count - how would you count them?  I don't see any
reasonable interpretation other then if abstentions count - then they
count in the total number of votest (i.e. in the number 16 above) -
because obviously they cannot count as YES votes and they cannot count
as NO votes.

does not agree with you is from kindergarden - OK - I can accept that
this is your view - but please spare us from repeating this over and
over.
