[atlarge-discuss] Constitution

["Ron Sherwood" <sherwood@islands.vi>]

A rose by any other name...  smells as sweet.

Those who live in the belief that only the dictionary that they are familiar with is correct, are bound to fail the test of international communications.

I happen to believe that What David wrote from NZ is valid and legal in NZ.  The job of our Panel is couch a "Constitution" or whatever is chosen as its title, in terms that are as universally acceptable as possible, and legal in the jurisdiction in which we choose to incorporate.

To claim that the title is incorrect simply demonstrates the intellectual limitations off the claimant.

Please let us judge this draft document, and any others that are presented, by the value and relevance of their content and not by the language limitations of the reader.

Constitution,  a : the basic principles and laws of a nation, state, or social group that determine the powers and duties of the government and guarantee certain rights to the people in it b : a written instrument embodying the rules of a political or social organization.

    Do we not see ourselves as a political or social organization that should have a written instrument embodying the rules by which we operate?
