You should see the conferences - people are actually showing up to work, learn and grow their businesses. It's very refreshing for a change to see everyone hit with a good dose of humility. Attendance numbers are meaningless and always have been. Pretty much all year the shows have been down by half but by in large if you queried the average attendee they would mostly say the same thing - they're doing more business and getting more out of the shows now that the BS has disappeared.
Ethics and money don't have to be mutually exclusive. There are a great many creative thinkers reinvesting themselves back into their businesses and will come out of all this shining, without going over to the dark side. Those in search of the quick buck won't last nearly as long this time around.
