It all looks like it should be of interest to someone.  And much of it
is to me though the items more suitable to a corporate environment are
less so for us retired folk.

I wonder how many people attend both east and west meetings versus
those of us who live so far east or west that we choose to only attend
one side.  I would hate to miss too much just from not wanting to
drive so far to go to the other.  OTOH, I am sure those who attend
both would not like to see too much duplication.
