The words of the Constitution have meaning as intended when written. And when they were written, quorum meant members present and present meant physically PRESENT. Just because the world changes, that doesn't change the original intent of the words as written. If Congress wants to go ZoOMiNg then they can propose an amendment to the Constitution, to be considered by the states and the people.
So we should still have slaves?
Have you stopped beating your wife?
Nice try, but the plain, original intent of the words in the 13th Amendment explicitly abolished slavery (except when used as punishment).
The Constitution has been altered (sometimes for good, and sadly other times not so good) because it can be and at times should be. But to change the meaning of any part of the words in the document, it must be changed.
If Congress wants to ZoOm, pass a Amendment, get it signed, and ratified.
