Heck, what's a little picador work, anyhow? Now if we could take the seriously offensive words, "process abuse" off the table as well. The word "abuse" means, to me, conscious, deliberate malfeasance committed by a person who is by definition without ethics (sort of like spousal abuse). In other words, while "gang of 4" could be intended as humorous, "abuse" could never be. There is a correct term in Roberts for the topic that we are discussing -- it is "a breach of the rules". I suggest we adopt it forthwith. There is also a process for handling it. Since the bylaws mandate the use of Roberts, I suggest we should look into it.
