I have just returned from attending two back-to-back conferences at the Aspen Institute. And while there were great leaders and fascinating people at both affairs, one had the distinct feeling of a certain kind of dislocatedness from reality.

At Brainstorm, the lack of understanding for the need for increased security was not only palpable, but it was also almost discouraged. Other than that, both were great shows.
