Most books about baking aren't printed on dough, for instance. Jeff, I think you were led by the nose to outrage here. We need to question the authority of *whatever* media figures tell us, whether corporate or casual. I see the person you’re writing about has provided motivating info already…. ;-)

Actually we should do away with money!! And property... how outmoded is that? Jeff, Teasing you, of course. - Amanda PS As I see it, you've got boundary issues. Also, "control" seems to haunt you. I am guessing you had an overbearing mother. And who do they think they are charging for the conference? Actually we should do away with money!! And property… how outmoded is that?

In summary: this particular event was primarily our customers sharing their case studies with one another, and that level of openness from the clients required an "off the record" forum. We do appreciate the feedback (here and your thoughtful comment on Hurst's blog) and are actively working to find the right approach for all our events and activities. Jeff,
