Inappropriate use of Point of Order?

	According to Robert's Rules of Order, a Point of Order is raised if the rules of order have apparently been broken. In this case, rules don't seem to have been broken, and Lee is really just interrupting to bring up his own issues (which could be construed as out of order). The closest motion that I could find is a Request for Any Other Privilege, which he would then use to try to bring up a more pressing issue, but this is still an iffy case.

	:Standing-up at the table is a request to yield. The one who has the floor is the one who can decide to yield the floor. If Lee continued without the floor being yielded to him, then it would be out of order. Notice that Lee does ask for the floor to yield. The point of order is to get the answer to yield the floor and to quiet everybody else that does not have the floor. Roslin immediately tabled the issue that Lee brought up. Lee sits down, and the floor is returned. He could have requested an immediate call to vote to handle the issue, but typically it would have to be by some disastrous or emergency situation to call to vote on non-agenda items. Why didn't he make that case at that time? [[User:Dzonatas\|Dzonatas]] 14:51, 20 April 2008 (UTC)		*Standing-up at the table is a request to yield.

			*Since a legitimate Point of Order addresses a violation of the rules, it is addressed ''immediately'' to ensure proper procedures are followed. For this reason, it is frequently abused. I view the episode as reflecting the reality of that abuse. Lee has a point to make, but it isn't his turn, so he misuses the rule to interrupt. That isn't proper procedure, but it is a realistic depiction of what frequently happens in meetings. [[User:Dogger55\|Dogger55]] 14:25, 12 July 2011 (EDT)

	I myself have decided to suspend disbelief on this particular issue. I find it fairly unbelievable that there isn't an automated system that would at least inform CIC that a "launch" had taken place. Also, this is a military ship on a war footing; I'm sure they have plenty of bored marines who could be patrolling the ship, especially sensitive areas like launch tubes and airlocks.

			:::*Actually, Cally used the key to switch the airlock door control from Locked (red) to Active (green). The green control light remained on after Tory removed the key. If the switch remained "hot", and Tory had the sense to take the key with her, it would be reasonable to assume that Cally pocketed the key before opening the door.

	:::True, but you know what happens when you put "machines" in charge of things... Closed circuit monitoring would of course be sensible.

			::*Actually, there is space between each tube, which is wide enough for a control room (at least). As Cally first approaches the tube, you see a shorter door on the right labeled "Launch Control". This is the area from which Tory ultimately vents Cally into space. If Launch Control does not run the full length of the tube, there would be an empty gap where a window could be placed. Plus, there should be more space between each tube, simply to ensure minimum separation between Vipers during simultaneous launch. If all Vipers launch at once, you don't want those suckers flying too close to each other. An examination of the blueprint ([[Galactica_(RDM)#Blue_prints_of_Galactica\|click on link here]]) shows space between each tube. [[User:Dogger55\|Dogger55]] 12:26, 12 July 2011 (EDT)
