While it seems like it would be very interesting to attend, my inclination is to say that there would be something very wrong to get on a plane (using fuel in the process) to attend such a meeting.....

Yeah, you could argue that the plane would be flying there anyways, but that argument seems a bit weak...

Flying, assuming you are in a jetliner is about twice as fuel-efficient as driving per-passenger-mile, so you'd be doing us a favor.
