[clue] [TALK] A possible solution (was: Why CLUE does not video stream meetings)

Wed Aug 17 08:57:36 MDT 2011

I have an idea, but I'm afraid to say it, because I feel like I'm repeating myself and will be mocked for my redundancy. Watch as I walk through fear into redundancy...

Gus and Don and anyone else with a great, un-realized idea:

Do the thing! Holler if you need help.

Please don't whine that nobody's doing something. It grates on my nerves. It doesn't make me want to help you; it makes me want to put a dead fish in your pants and make loud comments about the smell. (If you think that's shocking and un-funny, you should see the two previous ideas that I deleted.)

Just do the particular thing that you wish someone would do. If the bureaucracy is in your way, ignore the bureaucracy; find one person that agrees with your great idea, and then you two go do it, demonstrating how right you were all along. Ask here for specific kinds of help that you can't provide from yourself or your cadre/coven/cronies.
