Yep, that seems to be the consensus. > Full Disclosure: My reaction to reading the message is something > along the lines of "It sounds a bunch of pointy-haired suits listening > to Yet Another speaker promising to solve all their problems by > following a checklist, when the real problem is that you can't fix > stupid." The audience of SwaNH is a different crowd. There are a number of business leaders, marketing people, mid- to large-corporate types, etc. They actually hear something in some of these presentations that can make them go on and have a success, despite that most of the presentation will sound like nonsense to an average person. Years ago, at one of the nadirs of my career, I listened to a "motivational speaker" at a meeting I attended and, whether it was something he said or just my allergic reaction to his nonsense, I went on to found a fairly successful company in a much different direction than I had been intending. Stuff happens *shrug*. In this case, I think the Venn diagram of "what SwaNH covers" and "what GNHLUG is about" doesn't intersect, so we can pass. But it is not an absolute rule; when they do have meetings more "techie" and of interest to our members, I encourage anyone hearing of them to post info.
