Dear Sotiris

On reflection I may have been more brusque than I meant.  If so I apologise.
It certainly was not my intention to ascribe any motivation (such as lying)
to your comments.

Should any such inference be made, I withdraw it unreservedly.

In fact, I have always respected your good will and, as you made clear
in an earlier email, your intention was, as you say, to probe the underlying
implications.  I respect that and responded amending the wording a little.

My comments were merely meant to say that too much examination of the
*next step* prevents us from taking the *first step*.  The motion is really
quite simple.  It is to prevent continuing disruption of substantive debate
with arguments about procedural issues.  I'd value your support.

The fact is that the General Assembly is totally incapable of getting any
work done or even any motion passed.

I think that is shameful.

There really is significant support for the motion.  Should you agree, I am
sure that Danny would assist by recognising the desirability of separating
substantive and procedural issues.

Otherwise the GA debate will be entirely stifled by continuing diversions.

Best regards
Patrick Corliss
