How is this relevant?

It's completely relevant because that's the way the world works.
Miss chow call and you're hungry until the next one.
Or, as my boss used to say, "you snooze, you lose".

The distinction still exists. It doesn't
matter how *open* the venue is if no one shows up.

And whose fault is it for not attending? Is J3 to march
around the world with a drum?

It's
not public unless people are watching. The percentage of
concerned persons that watch is the relevant measure of
how public something is - not the openess of the venue.

Attend, or quit your griping. Play by the rules, or don't play.
(No, I didn't invent the rules, either. I just know what they
are, and I play by them.)

What did you do for Fortran, Daddy?

Well, I shoveled *** in Louisiana.
