Leave, I mean." > > -- > Rule Date: 2002-06-01 16:59:04 GMT > JUDGEMENT: We've been down this road before, haven't we? Rule 185.5 was invalidated because of its "Future rules shall all be INVALID due to inconsistancy with this rule" provision. And now we have "ALL FUTURE RULES ARE INVALID". I see no reason why one should be VALID while the other is not. Yet there are those who argued 185.5 should have been VALID, and their arguments are not without merit. Then again, no one proposed overturning that judgement, did they? STYLE: Since this is INVALID, it may very well have positive style. And indeed, this rule goes right through the nadir of unstylishness and out the other side; it's so very unstylish, it's the height of style. Except, of course, that it loses a style point for being INVALID. -- - Rich Holmes Syracuse, NY -- Rule Date: 2002-06-02 02:53:23 GMT
