An inchoate meeting should not be declared inquorate.

Of course not, Bill. It's a matter of quantity, not quality.

ya know, there's a section of this board specifically for talking about the daily words and their respective themes. It's called, surpisingly, Weekly Themes.

Wow, now there's supervision here is there, with a bit of sarcasm thrown in.

Ignoring the unseemly scrapping of the teenage members of the board, and considering Bill's declaration that,
"An inchoate meeting should not be declared inquorate"
, what I'd like to know is, if the meeting is inchoate, who would be in a position to declare the meeting inquorate anyway? (and expect anyone else to pay attention, that is!)
It could never happen in an anarchic meeting, you know!

I saw a film a while back which noted:
"The only meetings worth going to, are the ones that can't be held without you"

It would certainly put paid to a lot of meetings, because no-one would turn up. sounds like a Good Idea to me (says he, with feeling!)

No, not scrapping - I'm with you Jazz, the board divisions make sense when followed!! Let's call a meeting

Count me in, mav!

I've also brought up the fact that the board has different cubbyholes for different topics. I'd love to see the poor neglected "Weekly Themes" used more often, since this place is so full already, counting scores of fora (forii? Correct me, someone ).

It is beginning to sound as though a necktie party is inchoate.Desperately hope it remains inquorate.But the Weekly Themes are so little used, a post there would never get noticed. And please note the difference between "Day" and "Week". I believe in old show-biz dictum that every knock is a boost.Even if up steps to gallows. qqh
