The
BBTS sent me an invite to
their annual conference today. I am *incredibly*
cynical about this sort of thing. Whilst in theory there are all sorts of
lectures and symposia being presented, for so many years this sort of this was
just an excuse for a big party with your old mates in works’ time and at works’
expense.
Have
things changed nowadays? I hope so, but at two hundred and fifty quid (plus accommodation costs) it’s a bit
steep. I can’ help but think that far more could be achieved by presenting all
the lectures as podcasts, and those who want a party can sort one out for
themselves.
