Hear, hear! Our ex-soldier may be blind, but thank Cthulhu she's not dumb, and she speaks sooth. In fact, I'd say this was the most substantial contribution up to now.
As for the loud/quiet-debate - of course everyone should make an effort to participate to the fullest, but exactly how much everybody's fullest amounts to may and does vary from person to person. It's difficult to distinguish between a naturally quiet citizen, somebody distracted by menial duties, and a lurking wolf; in case of doubt, content should be considered as much as word count.
(By the way, it just occurs to me that the hallowed First Commandment According To Nogrod, "Thou shalt not suffer a submarine to live!", is somewhat problematic to apply in a setting where all of us - except for the wolves - aspire to becoming submarines in the end...
