Some meeting rules for the modern world.

1. Designate a start time, and stick to it.
2. Have one designated cell phone if necessary.  All other cell phones, pagers, PDAs are off.  
3. As you enter the room, park your ego at the door. There is no rank in this room.
4. Commit to the topic. Help us stay on track.
5. There are no bad ideas. This is a safe place.
6. Everyone participates. No one dominates. 
7. Share your experience freely.
8. One speaker at a time.
9. Be an active listener.  Keep an open mind.
10. Agree only if it makes sense to do so.
11. Let’s learn something and accomplish something together.
12. The Sniper rules:  no heckling, no shout outs, no drive-by shootings.

Then ask: does anyone want to add anything?
