If I did not believe we could come up with a proposal that satisfied more people than a simple interpretive vote would, hal, I wouldn't be working on it with the rest of the committee.
But I do. I said I aimed to have no losers. I realize that's not likely, but the attempt makes it at least hypothetically possible, unlike a straight up-or-down party-line vote, which makes it impossible NOT to have losers, and very possibly quite a few. Up to 49.9% of the board, in fact.
If the board chooses not to adopt any proposal offered by the committee, we will go from there. But I must hope that will not be the case, and that we can produce something the board decides is a pretty good idea. Because after all, we are part of the board. We are not outside consultants, or professional lawmakers, but B77ers. No more, no less.
Now if everyone will excuse me, I am now going to return to concentrating on the work of the committee and, oh yes, the rest of my life.
