Vancouvia, when this one fails to make quorum, just drop it. Even if it were to make quorum, I think many people here would vote Nay just on the basis of how many times you've submitted it in a row.

I was going to take a one day respite out of respect for the fallen heroes of Vancouvia (tomorrow is Fallen Vancouvian Heroes Day), but we cannot take this sly threat lightly. We will take it heavily.
