Re: [sudo-discuss] Proposed changes to the Conflict Resolution Process - sudo-discuss

24 Jan 2013

I've lost track of what we're talking about, but I think we should all be equipped
with Sudo Sporks (knife-spork) - the butcher, the baker, and the candle-stick maker
especially.

If all three are in conflict with each other, by the way, it may curiously be less of a
problem and rather the ideal scenario for cooperation. A team of rivals, with deliberate
separation of powers, can sometimes be the best way to get through a delicate challenge,
like with the 13th amendment for those who've seen Spielberg's Lincoln.

Facilitator.  but what if the constable, the scribe, and the facilitator are in
conflict with each other?  
 They should duke it out using spoons, rubber chickens, and the world's dwindling
supply of Hostess Twinkies.
