Finding a Consensus - Is It Possible?

[Ms Naughty]

Good point Wazza. Individual action is a good step.

Although it needs to be accompanied by:
1. Public Relations
2. Lobbying of government
3. A show of united force

There's also the issues of:
1. Who represents us to the FSC
2. Who represents us to the public.
3. Who the hell "us" is
And 3 is where we've had a few problems LOL

Don't tell anyone, but a few years ago I was involved in politics. I gave it up, because most meetings were a waste of time, with people arguing over petty points and forgetting the bigger picture. It was always a Life of Brian situation:

LORETTA:
I agree. It's action that counts, not words, and we need action now.
COMMANDOS:
Hear! Hear!
REG:
You're right. We could sit around here all day talking, passing resolutions, making clever speeches. It's not going to shift one Roman soldier!
FRANCIS:
So, let's just stop gabbing on about it. It's completely pointless and it's getting us nowhere!
COMMANDOS:
Right!
LORETTA:
I agree. This is a complete waste of time.
JUDITH:
They've arrested Brian!
REG:
What?
COMMANDOS:
What?
JUDITH:
They've dragged him off! They're going to crucify him!
REG:
Right! This calls for immediate discussion!
COMMANDO #1:
Yeah.
JUDITH:
What?!
COMMANDO #2:
Immediate.
COMMANDO #1:
Right.
LORETTA:
New motion?
REG:
Completely new motion, eh, that, ah-- that there be, ah, immediate action--
FRANCIS:
Ah, once the vote has been taken.
REG:
Well, obviously once the vote's been taken. You can't act another resolution till you've voted on it...

So in the end, nothing happens until Judith rushes out and does something herself.

We do need 1 or 2 people to stand up and be the "action figure" as it were. It can't be me because I'm an Aussie, but I'm happy to support anybody who is willing to put the time and effort in, doesn't matter who it is.

OK, time for me to stop gabbing about this, it's completely pointless and getting me nowhere.
