Hey! It's not my fault!
you should always have a Plan B!
unacceptable.
I'm sorry. I have failed.
i'd be happy to. altho i still haven't decided on how to structure my reporting.
Well I have yet to hear anything remotely insightful from the panel, so good luck with that!
haha didn't i tell you?
wasn't expecting anything new
I wonder if the missing panelist would have had something better to say…
oh man i just noticed he never came.
those dookies. ….
i hope he got into a car accident or something as serious to prevent him from making his way here to grace us with his presence

I've noticed there has been precious little discussion of ethics at this panel.
I guess that's what they get for inviting someone who says "I like abortions and want more of them" to an ethics panel.
hahahahaha !
that's exactly what i was thinking!
how did you make those nice stars next to their names?
Set them as bullet points in the editing window.
