I said I'm sorry. I've made mistakes, but fear was never one of them.

Bureaucracy 2: Like Sartre, Only Longer  

A thread to discuss naming threads, board policy, new thread suggestions, and anything else that has to do with board administration and maintenance. Guaranteed to include lively debate and polls. Natter discouraged, but not deleted.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

Natter 17=4^2 - cos(p): Could this be mathier, Nilly?

I like this a lot, but let's spell out pi, because pi is good.

Yep. Definitely liking "It Could Be Mathier," and that 17 should actually appear in the title (for various reasons, not the least of which being that playing with the numbering before has caused headaches), but also liking the idea that the number should also includ some kind of mathiness - that way it appeals to Nilly in multiple ways.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Per a discussion in Bitches, I move we open up the F2F thread, which was scheduled to open in October.

Well, it's October. I second.

Not to interrupt the fun-with-procedure, but I don't think you need a motion and discussion to reopen the thread. Just ask the stompies to do it.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

Why October? I thought we voted to close it and motions aren't to be reconsidered for six months.

(I'm not against it, but I think we should follow procedure)

I thought this was an exception. Six months from when we closed it would be much too late to start the discussion and still have time to plan.

eta: or what Steph said.

And I was just about to come back in here and post what Perkins said.

There's NO WAY to plan a May F2F if we can't open the thread until April.
