There's going to be a news conference with the ABC at 3:00 tomorrow, but I'm not sure of the time zone for that.

Has ABC Justin commented on this action yet?  Did he actually lead the
primates to vote on restricting/sanctioning TEC?

I did read +Curry's comments about how painful this is, but is this a vote
with authority.

In years past, as this has roiled over the years, I think I remember that
there was a majority of one primate who wanted to kick out TEC.  As my
feeble brain recalls it was somethink like 18 to 17 primates.

What was the count?

I am not in a mood for drama.
