I don't understand your near-obsession with an agreement you haven't signed. Your behavior reminds me of those corporate gadflies who show up at a company's annual meeting and try to dominate the agenda with their pet proposals. But corporate gadflies at least buy a share of stock to gain admittance. You're not a party to the agreement at all. If you sign on, I'll be happy to consider your opinions. If you don't, I'll just shrug your comments off.

Not all that many of us are talking about the new Indian dinosaur--I haven't mentioned it--but the most off-topic performance on this thread has to be the AndrewC sniping. At least two pings to the Admin Moderator on a thread with almost no real name-calling or abuse.

I "obsess" on things that enable a violation of civility. I "obsess" on things that allow people to name-call and belittle under the guise of harmony.

You may shrug off what you like. If my observations are wrong I'm sure that someone will point that out.
