This is true of any meeting containing more than one person. (A single-person meeting, of course, ought not, in a sensible mind, count, at least since {{otto}} asserted through his maxim “[[convenimus ergo es]]”).This leads to the paradox that, to be meaningful, a meeting must have more than one, but fewer than two, people.

As a consequence of these axioms there is thus a lower ''and'' an upper bound on the number of people possible in a viable meeting of a given duration. <br>
As a consequence of these axioms there is thus a lower ''and'' an upper bound on the number of people possible in a viable meeting of a given duration. They, when allied to {{buchstein}}’s maxim lead one to the paradox that, to be meaningful, a meeting must have more than one, but fewer than two, people. There is a school of [[catholic]] thought that this is absolutely ''not'' a paradox, but is rather a profound truth about the universe.<br>
