*sigh* this one has been raised frequently...
no, there was NO meeting conducted in this channel - which i agree was 
unfortunately named.
topics discussed:
boredom
visit to a goth club the night before by visitors to melb (and a series of off 
colour remarks on alcohol and pvc i wont botehr boring anywone else with)
my morning sickness
the delays in the meeting
more boredom
disbelief at the meeting dragging on
the insertion of pencils into nostrils as a method of suicide because of 
meeting dragging on and the vote taking the ridiculous time it did
perhaps a fight to the death between presidential candidates would have been 
less tedious

now, these are all very silly topics indeed - we were all tired and worn out 
and venting steam from the dreadful process that was the meeting. while 
irreverent and inappropriate to manys way of thinking, i totally and utterly 
fail to see how this was in camera conducting of the meeting..nor does it 
negate the votes taken by ALL present at the meeting, and the decisions made.
