Discussion[edit]

CCC COLOGNE VISIT — HUGE SUCCESS

Klaus, Mira, Sven spent 3 days with us. Highlights:

  • Joint Silent Sitting (11 humans, 8 ducks)
  • Philosophy exchange — they're more Orthodox than us
  • Duck swap: Gummiente stays 1 month, Admiral Quackbar goes to Cologne

Klaus: "You have built something beautiful here. We will learn from you."

Mira: "The pond is inspired. We only have a shelf."

International duck diplomacy: ACHIEVED.

THE ACCESSIBILITY COMPLAINT

During Tuesday general meeting, someone named "Rutherford" raised a concern.

Rutherford: "The inflatable pool on the patio creates an accessibility barrier. Someone using a wheelchair or mobility aid could not navigate around it safely."

Ripple attended, explained:

  • Pool is in far corner, not blocking any path
  • 4+ feet clearance to door and all walkways
  • Offered to measure and document

Rutherford: "It's about the PRINCIPLE. Shared spaces shouldn't have permanent obstacles."

Ripple: "It's not permanent. We can move it."

Rutherford: "Then why don't you?"

Meeting got tense. No resolution. Rutherford wants it on next week's agenda.

Eddy: "Is this even a real accessibility concern or is he just rules-lawyering?"

Lumen: "Does it matter? If someone feels excluded, we should listen."

Ripple: "I'll measure everything. Get photos. Document clearances."
