The conference description sounds very interesting but, apart from the misuse of the "documentarian" (which is someone who produces documentaries--not documents), the titles that the "Crew" ascribe to themselves leaves me very dubious. "Visionary", "Super Genius", and "Documentarian"? Seriously?

It sounds interesting, but no word on how much it would cost.
