dunno about whatever incident sparked this, but I want to point out that 
US & UK/Commonwealth English differ on the meaning of the phrase "to 
table" something.

In the US this often means to kill it -- to put it on the table INSTEAD of 
taking it up.

In the UK (and I presume the commonwealth) this most commonly means to put 
it on the agenda (ie not let it slide).
