I'm not sure you'd have to lead. I think once the date came around people would come in saying something like "Dude. His use of language was blahblahblahbrainybuffista talk." And then you'd probably talk about the stuff you know about the book and we'd argue and discuss.
I'll be fine. I'll be your bounty, Jubal Early. And I'll just fade away.

Voting Discussion: We're Screwing In Light Bulbs AIFG!
We open it up, we talks the talk, we votes, we shuts it down. This thread is to free up Bureaucracy for daily details as we hammer out the Big Issues towards a vote. Open only when a proposal has been made and seconded according to Buffista policy (Which we voted on!). If this thread is closed, hie thee to Bureaucracy instead!

Curse your memory!
I could lead a discussion on that, you betcha.

Well, there you go. And if the person who picked the book wanted to throw out discussion points, or link to other useful reading, or whatever, great. If not, then a simple, "So, what'd you think?"
Now, the only thing ... I'd want to make sure we didn't pick five of the same kind of book in a row. But, that's an easy enough thing to ask of people.

Mwah!
Also? Sophia's will-bending machine works really, really well. It's a little scary.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
And if it doesn't work well, we can discuss, winnow, bullshit consense, etc. in a couple of months, right?
As long as there's winnowing.
Gar, you know how people glaze on the parliamentary details. Don't take it personally.

The Old Fashioned Girl is the best book ever. You must read and be assimilated
