<p>[QUOTE=&quot;V. Kurt Bellman, post: 2297781, member: 71723&quot;]Technical quibble: Virginia&#039;s House of Burgesses in Williamsburg used the parliamentary system, and needed to be fully reset to the more American model. The Pennsylvania General Assembly was never parliamentary, even under the Crown. It used the arced semi-circular seating arrangement from its inception that it still uses today from Day One. [This last line has been sponsored by the Department of Redundancy Department. Never say once what you can repeat yourself again about all over.] That distinction is dispositive to us in the Keystone state. And on the occasion of a break in the Assembly&#039;s work, the space was lent to two Continental Congresses&nbsp; who used it, and its rather unique seating arrangement, to establish a nation.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
