%EITHER/OR PRIORITY SETTING PROCEDURE ROBERTS' RULE 971030              
                                                                                                                               
     "Either/or"  people and procedures are inadequate  to              
the  task  when it comes to wisely setting priorities  ---                                                                     
for to wisely set priorities  we  must consider a spectrum                                                                     
or buffet of alternatives --- and pick prudently  from the                                                                     
full spectrum/buffet of  alternatives those few which will                                                                     
receive significant amounts of attention from us.    There                                                                     
are rarely only  two  choices, and there is no helpful way      
to reduce the choice making process  to  a  sequence  of -              
separated  "either/or"  choices.    People and  procedures              
that  demand  that  the process be  governed  by  separate              
"either/or"  thinking procedures cannot act  prudently  in              
setting   priorities.   Thus   traditional   parliamentary                                                                     
procedures such  as Roberts' Rules of Order are misleading              
in   this   respect;and  power  to   set   priorities   is                                      
concentrated  in very small groups that are not limited to                               
the use of formal decision making procedures.              
                                                                                                                               
                                                                                                                               
                         (c) 2005 by Paul A. Smith in      
                    (On Being Yourself, Whole and Healthy)
