-*half-smile* Yes, my vast, vast power that all must go through Glotmorf's 
veto...-

-If your wins are negated, that kills our credibility as benevolent, and 
might just lead to Dave deciding not to notice our posts for a while until a 
proposal can get through. I'm not saying we can't, I'm just saying I 
wouldn't, and I think Glotmorf and bd are similarly-minded here.-

-I didn't propose anything with that high a Chutzpah, so don't call me a 
hypocrite. I think that 1000 is also rather (read: really damn) high, but it 
was initally just supposed to be an arbitrarily high number to discourage 
attacks, as far as I can tell. Seems it didn't work, though.-
