At any rate, if people are really willing to pay this sort of money to hear me speak, perhaps I should make a videotape of me giving a presentation about my Usenet cancelbot and send it to Sandy?
Dimitri is certainly welcome to bring his video with him, but just sending the tape defeat the whole purpose of a physical meeting. When we have speakers, there are opportunities to expand or contract one's talk to conform to the particular audience's interests. A live presentation allows the listeners to ask for clarifications and to provide useful feedback to the speaker. I am again extending my most sincere invitation to Dimitri to come to San Francisco to address a Cypherpunk physical meeting. What I need now is a simple "yes" or "no". After that, I will bend over backwards (but not forwards) to accomodate Dimitri's particular concerns. S a n d y ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
