But then making this in terms of the sizing and the use that was asked for by Live Oak Meeting- I mean it's a very traditional form, except it's convertible.

Giorgio Agamben

Remembrance of things past is not necessarily the remembrance of things as they were.

Marcel Proust

When the outcome of a meeting is to have another meeting, it has been a lousy meeting.
