Hah! Consuela beat me to the Katie Kwote.

Rainy day in Natter:
NoiseDesign:
I think I just saw an Ark go by.
aurelia:
Did it collect 2 Buffistas?
NoiseDesign:
Yeah, and now they are taking over.
DXMachina:

NoiseDesign:
There was also a vote about just what a cubit is.
I think that last COMM should go in the FAQ as the definition of "Bullshit Concensus."
