Hmm... I wouldn't have voted for that proposal had I realized its
implications.  On my part though, it's my policy not to abuse
positions of trust.*

Um.

Somehow, up to now, I _consistently_ read "an Agoran decision has been
resolved" as "the voting period of an Agoran decision has ended".

* (That doesn't mean I can't abuse offices, just positions of trust.
I would object to burying scams in reports and Poobah pragma-evil, but
not to Goethe's old Deckmastor scam [1], ais523's
Monster-can-do-anything scam, or my nomination of AFO for Assessor for
the Scam.  Rigging Bayes was pushing it.)

Anyway... I'll stop talking about Agora on the B list.
