In a thread entitled “legal opinion Renaming decision Reeds Brook”, where in a prior post there was a legal opinion of Town Counsel Maher saying that the by-law about requesting the advice of the Public Memorial Committee was not being followed in recent namings, the following was said by someone:
Well, if everyone’s ignoring the by-laws and just naming things without asking the advice of the committee, why would there be minutes? They have nothing to meet about.
To which our favorite list member and part-time copy editor responded in part:
I have not said everyone is ignoring the minutes bylaw.
An act, or just stupidity? You Make The Call(tm)!

One side in the current debate argues that it is possible to recognize people and track their movement with your head, even if you’ve suffered brain death.
Perhaps this is evidence that you can copyedit at the Globe and post to the arllist, after brain death?
I wouldn’t want to rush to judgement. Can you tell me which option the preponderance of evidence suggests?
