Discussion

I say the liberty side was to sign on. Agree, or not? Readers argue it here, in their own words. Not mine, and not checked the way a vote is.
Leave out anything private about anyone. The rules, what your account keeps, and what readers have changed so far
Would you score it differently?
Tell the hosts which vote, and why, on a call. The community meets every day.
