Re: [802SEC] Motion to amend Rome to Vancouver



I would argue that we are no longer in session, and a motion to amend is
not in order.

That said, I still think we can change our minds and have a vote on the
reflector to rescind our prior decision and make a different one.  After
all, Roberts is only a guide!)

However, I have not heard enough sentiment expressed by the EC that
people would change their minds.  I don't believe we will get any other
options at this late date.  It is Rome or Vancouver.  Pick your poison.

Pat,

I don't think that you can ammend a motion that already passed.

You can make a motion to recind the previous action and adopt a
different
decision, however, and be procedurally correct.

Again, while I'm not Paul, according to my understanding of our rules,
our
session ended at 6:00 pm EST on Friday with the close of the EC meeting,
so
it is no longer a motion to reconsider that would require the motion be
made
by one on the prevailing side.

Carl
