Bob, I don't believe I've ever witnessed any issue that a group of Al-Anon's
couldn't argue vehemently about.  I've seen an Assembly spend hours fighting
over the placement of a comma in a motion.  And for good reason!

OTOH, I've rarely seen a f2f meeting that functions as well as ASP with as
many trusted servants as ASP has, each doing their job according to the
spirit of the group conscience.

Good reminder on the Concept.  I get that.  I'm just thinking that if we are
going to give our leaders latititude to make such decisions that maybe the
voted on motion should equally vague so that nobody can argue that they
aren't fighting the spirit of the GC.
