Quack! And this would be one of the circles in hell, as would a meeting with no apparent leader - I might opt for the ducks in that case...

Deliver us, O Lord!

And it's possible that that's true. But we've all been in enough bad meetings that I wonder. Like Marie said in "When Harry Met Sally," "Everyone thinks they have good taste and a sense of humor.
