    You’re making a pretty good point. These conferences don’t really DO anything. They’re mostly box ticking and networking. And photo ops.

      Lol, indeed!

      The Times could have done more to educate, like at least listing the names of the women, instead of talking only about the man there.

      It’s horribly ironic and hypocritical.
