Copied here:
JA: 1. What is a principle?
AKA: axiom, canon, guideline, law,
maxim, norm, regulation, rule, etc.
JA: 2. What are our principles?
MW replied:
MW: A guiding truth, but note that you should neve let
your principles prevent you from doing what's right.
Matthew,
I have been asking about the broader principles of procedure
that the details of implementation are meant to flesh out,
since the nuts and bolts are irrelevant if the big ideas
fail to be realized, and we lose sight of these guiding
lights at the peril of the whole enterprise, indeed,
of its due place within the larger human picture.
Can you give the foremost examples of principles, either in the
sense of "guiding truths", or in any other sense of the word,
that you would have embodied in the Procedure specification,
and by virtue of its utility in the SUO Group, to become
embodied in the procedures themselves of this Group?
