Armbruster:

The last thing I’d suggest is concocting another ideology… Nor am I interested in conspiracy theories to explain the world, another name for madness. And I’m not searching for what could be if only things were run my way. I’m strictly thinking about what goes on, and I’m hazarding that morality may afford a handle, on the assumption—I may be wrong—that morality is not another name for chaos.

…

So I’ve come to the conclusion…that we must try to think in a systematic fashion about morality in practical working life.

“Armbruster’s Summons,” Systems of Survival (p19-20)

As unbelievable as this may be, at this point, Armbruster parlays his night as host into the chairmanship of a committee to systematically explore morality. That’s above your standard cocktail chatter, eh?
