(I assumed David knows which one I'm speaking about.) If so, does this
mean *I* am part of this secret cabal that dictates how Wikipedia is run?
Woke up this morning/Found I'd joined the Cabal.
In that case, do I have spend time thinking about what
the cabal does
next... or can I simply continue to spend most of my time working on
articles? Thanks to one very insightful editor (who declined my offer to
be nominated for Adminship because he felt he was not worthy), I've
found a resource that allows me to write rather useful articles on towns
in Ethiopia. In all seriousness, I think my skills would be put to better
use there -- as long as people continue to listen when I voice a concern.
Writing an encyclopedia is a much better use of thinking processes
than excess administrative wrangling is.
