My grandfather, may his memory be a blessing, was a world famous forestry prof. At conferences (back in the days of slides), whether he was chairing a session or not, he would stand up and clap when someone was out of time. Others would follow. Utter legend.

I recommend taking five to ten minutes to put your US rep, US senators, and state and local elected officials into your phone contacts so you can instantly call them whenever you get mad, which will be every day from now until we die.
