I will reiterate that, no matter how wondrous the two candidates you 
elect are, the board will sink into a morass of its own making this year

Right, but you know and I know that it's not seven people speaking for 
five minutes each, it's one person speaking for 30 minutes, three people 
speaking for one minute and three others who didn't turn up.
