Eek, I suck- I didn't realize you were blocking on me for this :/ I'm
not 100% thrilled with the proposed format (I think it is much harder
to find certain pertinent information in the list than in the table)
but you're going ahead and doing it, so go ahead and Do It- I'm not
doing it myself, clearly, right now :/

I'd note that conferences are a totally skewed audience with very
specific interests/needs/etc. I'm not particularly interested in
creating pseudo-data unless we are very clear and up front about
understanding the limitations.
