[atlarge-discuss] Musical Chairs
http://mailman.icannatlarge.org/pipermail/panel/2003-June/000061.html
Some panelists are taking stupidity to new extremes. Under discussion is a
proposal to rotate the chair of the panel every two weeks. While there is
certainly a value in Chair rotation, even the Chairmanship of the European
Commission is only rotated every six months.
I can just imagine the correspondence that an icannatlarge Chair would send:
"Dear Mr. Twomey,
as Chair of icannatlarge.org I would ask you to respond to our query in a
timely fashion; If you respond within the next three calendar days you may
contact me, otherwise please contact Mr. Goldstein who will be chair for the next
two weeks; failing that, please contact Mr. Klein who will be the Chair during
the following two weeks, or Mr. Chirita thereafter who will be Chair for the
following two weeks. On second thought, let me just send you a calendar so that
you can best determine who our Chair will be when you are in a position to
respond."
There is, to my knowledge, no other organization in the entire world that has
adopted such a practice (or has felt the need to even consider it). You have
certainly reached new heights of lunacy.
