I was simply trying to rectify any hard feelings. I am not sure why, but people 
tend to be easily offended on the web even when it's a matter of civilized 
opposing points of view. Thanks for your support in any case.

Sorry if I sounded a bit strong. I was inquiring to know if there was potential 
topic or not. When Neil said surprise I thought he might have some topic in 
mind.

Come on, that's a bit reactionary. Some of us have varying 
responsibilities, and so must plan for these meetings. Some topics are 
naturally going to be more or less interesting or even useful to many.

I expect there are many like me who mainly attend meetings where the 
topic is of "Must know" interest. Especially when we can't make them all.

It's not out of line to want to know what the topic, if any, will be for 
an upcoming meeting. I certainly don't think such a request is cause for 
such rude replies.

It's not your or anyone else's place to publicly offend another with 
your own value judgment on his motives for attending meetings.
