Indeed.  I don't attend meetings for one reason, the distance and time
involved.  Generally I take BART to work in SF from the East Bay.  If
I were to goto a meeting I'd have to drive to work and then drive to
the meeting and then home.  That's at least a 45 mile roundtrip to San
Bruno and an 85 mile round trip to Google.  No thanks.

That said a really awesome topic might get me out or maybe I could
present, but until then I'm really tempted to unsubscribe from the
list for a whlie.
