Over the course of the next few... years...(?), I'll be posting various Meeting Sleepytime Indicators (MSIs) as they are identified. When you're attending a meeting and an MSI occurs, it lets you know that it is now perfectly acceptable to stop paying attention and fall asleep, because all valuable conversation has ended. In fact, this may be the best way to engage in the conversation, because if you begin snoring it might prompt the other attendees to change the subject. So let's kick off the list!
Meeting Sleepytime Indicator #1: When two or more attendees begin debating the differences between "processes" and "procedures".
