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!

What's a star belly? Is it a kind of beagle?
And Cindy makes the baby Dr. Seuss cry and cry.
Works for me, Jon.
Great. Thanks, Brenda.

It's a kind of Sneetch.
It's a good opportunity to thank Jon and ita for all their work in all the ballots, I think. So: thanks!
Nilly - Did you get my message with the secret code?
Jon, didn't you get my answer? It was just "Thanks, now I shall rule the world with the rest of the secret-knowing, mwahaha", so nothing important, but I'd be worried if my mail address doesn't behave itself (or do you think it has an opinion on the subject of the vote at hand and wants to play with the results? Hmm).
Nobody is disenfranchised; everyone gets to vote.
That's true, bad word choice.
Basically we're ruled by a simple majority and anyone not in that majority is left out in the cold in this case.
Or, we all have to make compromises, and we try figure out what compromise will work for most people. As the no-thread-nannying discussion regarding the network dramas illustrated, there's a strong sentiment to make sure no-one is left out in the cold except by choice.
