Yesterday, after one vote, black smoke rose from the chimney of the Sistine Chapel, thus announcing to the world that no new Pope had been elected. Beginning today and continuing each morning until a new Pope is elected, at 7:30 a.m. CET (1:30 a.m. EDT) the Cardinals will meet for Mass in their living quarters at the Domus Sanctae Marthae. At approximately 9:00 a.m. they will convene in the Sistine Chapel for two rounds of balloting, which will conclude with the burning of the ballots at approximately noon. If necessary, the Cardinals will also hold an afternoon session of two votes, commencing at approximately 4:00 p.m. and concluding around 7:00 p.m.

Will do, buddy. Have a goodnight. Everyone, I'm on smoke watch until the morning balloting concludes.
Veni creator spiritus.
Thanks for the 'smoke cam' link. It's the best! Good night.
This is not a betting shop, but I have to say, for all the nay-saying of the news media about a "divided Church", I think this election is going to be really swift.
I give it 3 days, tops. We shall see...
Cheers,
Victoria
Panzer Cardinals rule! God Bless Benedict XVI!
