Conference kaosws::canada

It's so important that non-Canadian CANADAians won't have anything more to
say about it

    I think non-Canadian noters should be invited to contribute. The
    level of passion raised by specifics of the Canadian context may
    lead us to the wrong conclusions. External opinions could shed a
    more objective light on an issue which touches to universal values.

    

    Look! I'm doing whirly-twirlies!!!

    Aaaaah!

    I wish we hadn't started discussing THIS issue! I can't bear it!!!!!

    Please, less talk, more synthohol!
    
    Worf

    I'm glad to see that this discussion has at last been opened up to
    non-Canadians and that these contributions are indeed being encouraged.
    I think that those outside of Canada can truly bring a perspective to
    this issue that might otherwise be sorely missed.
    
    I'd also strongly encourage ex-patriate Canadians, wherever they are,
    to pipe up with their 2� worth, in whatever the local currency might
    be. 

    I appeal to the moderator, altough I think he is one of the < > in this
    conference, and he could not do < > about < > this < >! or any < > that
    is of importance.   Now please < > this!  We already have so many other
    < > that it is getting to be < > to read all this < >!

Not wishing to lower the level of this vacuous discussion, but I think
it is vastly important that all noters, no matter what their nationality,
be permitted to wiggle their uvulas, as it were.  Among some genders, this
very discussion has generated instant and violent vaginismus, not to
mention silicosis from the dust left by those rapidly exited this topic.

I, for one, have not the temerity to refer to the great simurg and inquire
if the aforementioned ploderator of this conference should, in fact, be made
a spatchcock, in the spatio-temporal concept.

Be it known, that all minions and shaved marmasettes have the save duties and
privileges to make this topic what it is today, and to continue to maintain
its present standards.  I call upon all citizens of this planet, and future
planets within the space-time continuum, to 'split the mainbrace' and 'shimmy
the mizen-mast'.

All Hail Korff Barbunk!!

    I wish I had said that....

    
    What the hell did she just say?????????????????????????????????

    RE:  .4
    
    I'm glad that this was brought up.  It touches on several points
    I had overlooked in my original argument about this entire situation,
    and I, for one, am glad that this has been brought out into the
    open.  So now that we are discussing exactly this issue, what are
    people's feelings about it?  And do you think there is a solution?
    
    Bob 'Synthohol from Karg' from Accountemps.

    I think we all agree, that it can be state quite categorically, beyond
    any shadow of a doubt, without fear of compromise, absolutely,
    definitely, unequivocally, positively, undissentingly, without risk
    of contradiction.

True, however, and this is not to lapidate at the aforementioned
juxtaposition of circumferentially related collateral kecks, but
I defer to His Omnipotent Putredness, the Loden Clothed, Korff
Barbunk.

In his Abysmalness, many antipole deliberations from indigenous,
anthropomorphic antheridiums have been thrust to their logical
and ecstatic conclusions, need I dare expound!

Kummmurffable

    re: .previous
    
    I thought the wording of the Meech Lake Accord was another topic
    entirely.
    
    

Oh ya? Well:
    
	In order to placate to certain whims, I feel compelled to
   extrapolate what might be miscontsrued as a malapropism. The avoidance of
   inappropriate or innocuous condescending permutations would incite a
   conglomeration of contradiction which is the purpose underlying this
   perfunctory endeavor. To attain the realisation of anthropomorphic
   diatribes in the attempt of translucent levity would be to transpose
   oneself from the euphemisms of cultural proliferations. As a fiduciary of
   egocentric existentialism, I feel it my role to benignly recoil from
   nihilistic philosophical pragmatists in order to exonerate future
   heterogeneous mixtures of unabated thought.

   	The utopian clouded vision of authoritarian encumbrances would
   undoubtedly belay the inducement of polarised linguistic misconceptions.
   To consider that one might be misanthropic in actions could promulgate
   eclectic views of outstanding proportions. It is henceforth that I must
   interject parenthetical considerations which could be plausible
   explanations for what might ensue. To have reached such a dubious plateau 
   only to be left with postulant inquiries could lead some to engage in
   banter which could affect the outlook on a theory postulated by those who
   would entice postured recollection.


   In reciprocal whirly-twirlyness,


   Glenn

    OK, what's the big idea ...
    
    Apart from over abundance of high-faluting words, what you just said
    made sense as a current description of the state of the ark relative
    to the Meech Lake Accord.  We cannot have sensible discussion
    masquerading itself as drivel in an otherwise nonsensical discourse.
    
    This attempt to introduce a subject into an otherwise subject less
    note cannot be permitted to continue.
    
    

    RE:  - a couple.
    
    Glenn, I think you bring several excellent arguments to the table...
    however, don't you think you're 'stovepiping' just a little much?
    
    Jim Snapping-insect-bottom.

    He comes with arguments in hand indeed, but an argument in the hand
    ain't worth nothin' when you're tryin' to blow your nose!

       On the other hand, initiation of critical subsystem development 
       adds explicit performance limits to the evolution of specifications 
       over a given time period.
    
   
    
       The simple elegance of such buzzology can be elucidated with a mere
       extraction of the modest BUZZ phrase generator included ensuite.

    I'm surprised by you Canadians' apathy towards this important
    subject!  If there can be 250 replies in the Sarnia topic, surely
    this topic deserves equal attention!

Ladies & Gentlemen, Mesdames & Messieurs, Distinguished Noters; 


	It is with sad dismay that I note the triviality of the treatment you 
accord this most serious of issues.  

	Consider the basic fundementality of this concept to the Canadian 
Identity.  Vacuity (or emptiness, if one prefers) is a major (some would say 
*the* major) characteristic of Canada, a thread which runs throughout the 
history of our noble country.  The nation as we know it today was formed 
only after herculean effort bridged two population centres (Eastern Canada 
and a soggy little area known as Gastown) with a railway that crossed thousands
of miles of, well, emptiness!  Much empty rhetoric and many empty promises 
threats went into this great national work (as well as many empty jugs). 

	Emptiness continues today as a Canadian political tradition - witness
the unremitting efforts of Messrs. Mulroney and company to ensure that every 
promise (and every taxpayer's wallet) is an empty one.  The tradition is 
epitomised in the Senate - which is so completely void of not only validity 
and function, but attendance as well, that it's members have had to bribe
themselves to show up at all.  And, of course, there is the Meech Lake Discord,
a document that might have succeeded in bringing Quebec into a constitution 
that would have been emptied of relevance.  

	Yes, the issue so neatly summarized in the topic header above is 
truly pivotal to the Canadian Experience (an empty phrase, by the way). 
Considering the awesome effect it has had on us so far, we would do well to 
treat it with the respect it so richly deserves. 

	I have the honour (or at least the grace) to subscribe myself as 
your ob't svt.,

	Double-you Tee. 

I thought it seemed like an appropriate time to re-post the base note.
JIMPEE.

    This subject got brought up in the fabled 'Whirly Twirly' topic and
    I believe it is appropriate to start up an entire note to discuss
    this topic.
    
    First of all, I'd like to put a few stakes in the ground about this:
    
    a)  that is important.
    b)  that there is extensive evidence to believe Canadians feel strongly
        about the issue.
    c)  millions, possibly billions, of dollars every year because of
        it.
    
    It's been said before but I'd like to bring it up again.  So, what
    do you folks think?  Do you agree with me on this when I tell you
    that maybe it is, and maybe sometimes it is not (although my
    personal experience indicates otherwise).
    
    Let me give you an example.  When I got to work the other day, it
    was.  And then later at lunch, well, as you can guess, again.
    
    So any and all comments are welcome, however, I would especially
    like to hear from Canadian noters, as this is in fact a subject
    that is near and dear to the hearts of all Canadians.
    
    Captain Tweezer.
