People take days off of work, spend hundreds on a conference ticket, travel for thousands of miles, and pay hefty rates for flights and hotels to come hear you speak, and you tell them you didnt have time to prepare a talk? Whats cool about that? The audience is busy too, but they found time to come to the conference. You cant find time to properly prepare a presentation for them?
