"Take a letter; to the chair of the 'steering' committee.
'Dear chair:
I have just been informed that seventy-two people serve under you on the
"Steering Committee on Public Policy and Exchange." It is my considered
opinion that seventy-two people under a chair violates several articles
of the Palnan fire code not to mention the health and safety charter of
1408 and most people's idea of a good time.
Therefore, I am instructing you that as of this date, all members serving
on the "steering" committee (with the exception of yourself) are to have
their tenure revolked. You may inform the members of this and advise them
that there _are_ (oddly enough) seventy-one positions available on the
newly-formed "Everybody Get Out and Push Committee."'
Yours very sincerely, etcetera etcetra."
---Lord Julius, Cerebus 151.
"Being wrong is only a deception by those who know."
"And that was what Alai had given him; a gift so sacred even Ender was
not allowed to understand what it meant." --OSC, _Ender's Game_
