SAVI Responses to Non-SAVI Group Situations

So, when you are in a meeting, say at work, and communication settles into the red light area, what do you do?

Co-workers unfamiliar with SAVI are most likely to laugh you out of the office if you say something like, "My opinion is that there's too much 'red light' communication taking place for us to be productive."

That you'll be laughed at is, I realize, a 'negative predication'; however, it's unlikely that anyone will say, "Hey! 'Red light' communication sounds interesting! Tell us more!" (which is another negative prediction).

When communication within a non-SAVI group is stalled in the 'red light' area, I tend to resort to a silent, with-holding, analytical, and, in reality, a 'judgement' position. Knowing that, I'm interested in strategies on how to try something different. And I'm open to suggestions!
