My point is that from the outside, someone could just as easily see you as being devisive in your requirement for that provision, just as easily as you blame others who did the same from the other side. It's all a matter of perspective.

There's no law of nature that says all the truly vital issues have to be on the table from the beginning. It's not unusual for something to come up in the middle of negotiations, or right at the end, which hadn't been thought of earlier, and suddenly the parties realize that this new item really important. That's what happened in the case of "troll-calling." If you want to look at it your way, that's up to you.

Holding an agreement hostage for 3 days so you can get your troll calling sanctioned is flatulence.

"There's no law of nature that says all the truly vital issues have to be on the table from the beginning."

Agreed and never said there was. Just trying to balance the perspective for everyone else who may be reading these threads but not participating as closely in the negotiations and following every detail.

This could have been added after the 30 day review, if necessary. That's why I recommended the freeze of the agreement while we had 99.9% agreement from everyone, including you, along with the 30 day review.

Same can always be said..."If you want to look at it your way, that's up to you." Fair and balanced.
