I hate committees. Where I work it’s a big issue. Each project has around 10-15 people, most of them account and production people. Good ideas get killed so fast.
We share an office with a great book cover designer who goes by the name of Design by Committee – you might like his logo (and anybody who’s ever tried to get a book cover design past the editor, the publisher, the marketing people, the author… will know why he chose that name!)
i’ve already heard the same sentence using a giraffe instead of a camel. :)

Maybe the committee took into account the terrain and weather conditions… just playing devil’s advocate.

A committee is a group of people who, individually, can do nothing, and as a group decide that nothing can be done.

Well, if the goal of the committee was to design a mount for desert, it’s pretty well done, no ?
