Rapaire, you said: "Your Second would handle the matters of date, time, place, and whatever other matters need to be discussed with his Second."

That would be possible if Amos had a Second, but he doesn't and he can't. God broke the mould after he made Amos, and there will never be a Second for Amos. Never. Such mistakes can only occur once in any single Grand Cycle of the Universe.

Since Amos is therefore incapable of providing or procuring a Second, he is the one who is in violation of the Code, by default, mind you, but he's still in violation.

I'm thinking of getting Sarah Palin to be my Second. Hell, she could even by my First, come to think of it. ;-) That gal can aim a gun.
